Some absolutely ridiculous wind gusts battering CR this afternoon. Enough already.

Was really hoping for some more rain this afternoon, not only could we use it, but our 9 year old granddaughter has a softball game in Nevada tonight, and I hate the thought of setting out in this crap for 90 minutes and freezing, watching kids that care more about drawing in the dirt with their shoes than playing.

Sun has finally come out in Omaha. Things really starting to pop Grand Island north and North of KC looks interesting.....

Looking like the line for 2+ inches is central portion of southern iowa to Dubuque.

Everyone in central IA is probably going to get something.

Here in Fernald, we got a downpour and a noticeable amount of pea hail.

 

[ackatch]

Up to 8/10 an inch now. I'm a fan of these breaks in between down pours to let things soak in.

Something is better than nothing, but was hoping for the 2-3" soaker that had been talked about.

Multiple rounds today/tonight. I know plants are different but there’s almost no amount of water on a yard that is enough water.

I have a ton of flowering plants in pots that my wife insists on having on our patio every year. I can assure you from personal experience there is an amount of water for them that’s too much, lol.

Some good rain tonight.

Some good rain tonight.

I’m sitting at 2.4” near the Ankeny airport on the day with more coming. It couldn’t have come at a better time. Sure glad I had my second May mowing yesterday.

3.60" in WDM (Son's place). 2.3" 30 miles east of Ames.

As of 6:00 pm last night I had exactly 1 inch. Dumped the gauge. Just checked again and got 3.2 inches overnight. I'm in Urbandale.

Really needed it.

.1” last night, the drought is over

 

[scyclonekid]

So far total 4.3, had one inch before the overnight rain. With more yet to go today freaking awesome no watering the garden for a few days.
