After a damp start to the new year, the National Weather Service in Dodge City is calling for clear skies at least through the weekend.

The Hays area received about three-tenths of an inch of rain Monday, with a report of 0.39 inches north of Hays. Victoria had reports of about a quarter-inch of rain, while Ellis reports ranged from 0.13 to 0.2 inches.

High temperatures this week will be in the low- to mid-40s, with overnight lows in the upper-teens to low-20s.

After a breezy Tuesday and Wednesday, the winds are expected to die down later in the weeks, with mostly sunny conditions expected.
