0.22" early this morning to bring the 4-day system total to 0.81". Seems like we have a yo-yo going on here with the moisture. Slammed in April with 7+ inches, this month will likely end up around 1 inch. Hopefully in June we can get another 7-8" to make up for May.

Looks like tonight will be night number 4 with storms dying out before reaching here. Hopefully meaningful rains return in June.

Just 0.17" here early this morning. 0.59" 3 day total.

Yeah just a bad overall setup for our areas. Several days of action in the Missouri Valley, and then it skips over and impacts areas east for Tuesday.

Or not lol.

Didn't quite make it. 0.42" Friday night and 0.00" last night. Another chance at dying convection tomorrow morning.

50mph southeasterlies on the north side of the southeast Iowa anvil rain. Don't think it's a wake low, seems like the southeasterly surface winds are being enhanced by the MCS somehow.

MSP area is gonna get smacked pretty hard tomorrow evening.

Looks like back to back nights of decaying Iowa convection tonight/tomorrow night. Hoping for a half inch between the two nights.

The HRDPS is the best short term model IMO. Always seems to have the best handle on convection evolution.

Picked up 0.03" from some very light rain showers. Up to 0.20" for the month.

A little bonus frost this morning with an unexpectedly low-low temp of 35 here.

As expected temps overachieved. Hit 31.

One last freeze tonight and hopefully that is it until fall. Already down to 38 here. Only under a frost advisory but we always get a few degrees colder here in the valley.

Was under a severe warning earlier. Nice surprise, wasn't expecting much action here. Lots of thunder and gusty winds. Picked up 0.16". Perfect for new grass seed.
