Wednesday's winter storm stayed far north and west of the Hays area, bringing some moisture — but not much.

According to initial reports from CoCoRaHS, rainfall reports ranged from about a tenth to a quarter of an inch in Ellis County. The official rainfall report from the K-State Ag Research Center in Hays will be available Thursday.

There is a 60 percent chance of more snow before midnight Wednesday before skies clear Thursday and Friday. Friday night, however, brings a chance for more snowfall, with the National Weather Service in Dodge City reporting a 40 percent chance of snow Friday night and into Saturday.

High temperatures for the remainder of the week will be in the upper-30s to low-40s, with overnight lows in the upper-teens to low-20s.
