The Great Kansas City Rain Detective: Did the Skies Open Up or Stay Snoozin'?
Ah, Kansas City weather. One minute you're sweating through your sundress, the next you're debating a raincoat or a snow shovel (okay, maybe that's an exaggeration... but not entirely!). So, what about yesterday, July 20th, 2024? Did the rain gods sprinkle their magic or were we left high and dry?
Hold onto your umbrellas, folks, because we've got the answer! (Don't worry, if there's no need for umbrellas, you can just use them for a fun Mary Poppins impersonation.)
Tip: Every word counts — don’t skip too much.
According to the weather data analysts (aka the super cool people who track this stuff), Kansas City received a measly 0.002 inches of rain yesterday. That's about as exciting as watching paint dry, folks.
Tip: Reading in short bursts can keep focus high.
But wait! There's more! (Is this where the plot twist happens in a detective movie?) Some weather sources suggest there might have been a brief sprinkle in the afternoon. We're talking a "fleeting wink from the rain clouds" kind of situation, not a full-on downpour.
Tip: Reading carefully reduces re-reading.
So, the verdict? Kansas City, it seems you dodged a bullet (or a raincloud) yesterday. Unless you were desperately hoping for a reason to wear those adorable rain boots you just bought, you can probably put those plans on hold.
Tip: Reread tricky sentences for clarity.
Need to Know: How Much Rain is That, Really?
Let's face it, 0.002 inches is a pretty insignificant number. To put it in perspective:
- A penny is about 0.06 inches thick. That means it would take 30 pennies stacked on top of each other to equal yesterday's rainfall.
- An average rain shower drops about 0.1 inches of rain per hour. At that rate, it would take Kansas City 50 hours of continuous drizzle to reach yesterday's "grand total."
Basically, you probably wouldn't even notice this amount of rain.
