Rain moved into central Missouri late Wednesday afternoon and was heavy at times, totaling over three inches just south of the KOMU viewing area. Rain accumulations for central Missouri later in this read.
Rain Accumulations
No flooding reported from this round of overnight rain, but the totals over such a short amount of time may surprise you.

Most locations along and south of I-70 received around 0.50" to 1.50", with Versailles receiving over 2.00" since Wednesday afternoon.
These rainfall totals are typical when associated with thunderstorms, not ordinary stratus cloud rains. This exception is because the sheet-like stratus clouds were allowed to grow more vertically due to high pressure to our north "forcing" all clouds more upwards, acting like a wall.
Freezing temps tonight
Due to a clearing sky and a colder airmass, Friday morning temps will drop to near 30-32 degrees. Freeze watches are not in effect for central Missouri, but sub-freezing temperatures are forecast and it is best to cover plants, or animals sensitive to frigid weather.
Weekend Outlook
A sunnier, drier pattern will begin! This was likely our last decent rain chance for about a week. Temps will reach the middle 50s Friday afternoon, which is still below normal for the time of year.
