As of Saturday at 7am (when each week's data is collected), this depicts the amount of rain needed to break the drought:
The drought is officially broken over eastern and south central Kansas, northwest Missouri, parts of Nebraska and northwest Colorado.

I believe next Saturday's tally will show significant improvement over northern and western Kansas and northern Missouri. However, Oklahoma, especially southwest Oklahoma, and adjacent areas of still need a great deal of rain to catch up.
The 7-day rainfall forecast predicts additional rains some of the areas still plagued with drought, especially the middle Missouri River Valley:
