Remember the five D’s:just got to work to realize there is a nado' warning in western adair county. i live in adair county
I'm right across 80 from Rubes and my weather station says only .06" so far today. Dark AF out right now though.I live in our basement 22 hrs a day and always have the shades closed - so I don’t see or hear anything but thunder. How much have we gotten out in Waukee? The few times I’ve looked outside the past few days, it’s looked like it was going to rain but I never then hear or see anything. The house is really humid however.
We live in Glynn Village behind Sugar Creek Golf. Seems like it’s been going right North or right South of us like 90% of storms do.I'm right across 80 from Rubes and my weather station says only .06" so far today. Dark AF out right now though.

Remember it takes months of this weather to break the drought posters said. I may be living in a tent in my roof by then. Since march 15, we are knocking on the door of 20 inches.Drought monitor says you are lying.
Tennis ball is 2.5"Is there really enough difference between a baseball and tennis ball to necessitate a distinction?
People always do that, lol. Reminds me in 2013 when everyone said that. Think May had like 2 days without rain that year. Drought talk vanished in a hurry.Remember it takes months of this weather to break the drought posters said. I may be living in a tent in my roof by then.

Something unsettling about this time is May 20-25 is known as "the week of the F5" for traditional tornado ally. Of the 9 F5s to hit the US since 2000, 4 of them happened between May 20-25. The other 4 all hit Dixie Ally on April 27, 2011, and then Greensburg on May, 4, 2007.

Could be wrong, but I think the threat for very large tornadoes is pretty small. Straight line winds being the biggest threat and hail.Something unsettling about this time is May 20-25 is known as "the week of the F5" for traditional tornado ally.

Waukee is talking about it. Sirens going off in ankenyI think there’s a good possibility schools will send kids home early. They don’t want to have kids on busses if storms are rolling through.
