Overcast conditions and a chilly wind didn’t keep hundreds of people from flocking to downtown Overland Park to watch the annual St. Patrick’s Day parade on Saturday.

The parade began at 79th and Floyd streets. From there, it moved west on 79th toward Santa Fe Drive before heading south through the heart of downtown, then ending at the roundabout near Thompson Park.

Take a look at some of the Post’s photos from Saturday’s festivities in Overland Park:
