Heavy rain, damage, accompanied Tuesday storms

(MSC News)--Early morning storms raced across northeast Kansas Tuesday, bringing torrential rain and damaging strong winds.

The destruction that came with the strong storms left a Jefferson County barn destroyed, with WIBW-TV, citing Jefferson County Emergency Preparedness, reporting it happened southwest of Winchester early Tuesday morning.

There have been no reports of any injuries.

As of late Tuesday morning, Evergy crews were continuing their efforts, with the company's outage map showing less than 2,000 customers without power in such local area counties as Atchison, Jefferson, and Leavenworth.

Only a chance for late Tuesday night showers and thunderstorms remains, with the rest of the week looking rain free and cooler.
