While some forecasts called for up to 2 inches of rainfall from Thursday’s storm front, the bulk of the precipitation again missed Hays.

Early reports showed, however, that Ellis County received up to a quarter-inch of much-needed rain south of Hays. Heavier rain was west of Hays, with a report near the Ellis-Russell county line showing more than a half-inch inch in the gauge.

Just more than a half-inch was reported at the Logan-Thomas county line. Check Hays Post as additional precipitation reports as they become available.

Heavier rain was reported in south-central Kansas, where Stafford County saw a report of more than 4 inches of rain.

The storm did produce large hail and tornadoes in far western Kansas, with reports of funnel clouds in Greeley and Hamilton counties.

More rainfall could arrive Friday, as forecasts call for a 60 percent chance of rain and thunderstorms.
