About 0.16 inches of that fell since midnight. There were no reports of flooding in Wichita, which had been a concern in the forecast.

'That is definitely something of note,' said Scott Smith, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Wichita. Wichitans have had restrictions on water use during a drought.
