An isolated severe storm is possible over a limited portion of the area late this afternoon and evening (Friday Sept 11), mainly north and east of Colby, KS between 6-11 pm CDT. Quarter size hail and wind gusts up to 65 mph are the primary threats — if storms develop.
Expect above average temperatures across the entire area today (Friday Sept 11) — and a 10-20% chance for late aft-eve storms over a limited portion of the area, mainly north and east of Colby, KS. A modest cooling trend will follow, on Saturday. Well above average temperatures are forecast on Sunday. An isolated storm cannot be ruled-out during the late aft-eve hours on Sat-Sun.
The return to service date has been delayed due to the breezy winds over the past several days. The work should be completed by September 16th.
