    Unfortunately the worse flash flooding I have seen in this area in a long long long time. Trees down & many houses around us have water in their homes now. Update. Rain has stopped but recorded by neighbors close to 7” of rain. Cars were stalled in front of our neighborhood. Pools are overflowing & drains being pulled to help let out water. Crawl spaces flooded in lower part of our neighborhood. Snakes are being seen everywhere where flood waters have brought them in.

    With the coming days & weeks. Heat strokes could be very possible. I’m not looking forward o working outside in this heat.

    It’s either feast or famine with these pop up storms. It’s going to take a tropical system of at least a couple days of rain to help with the drought conditions in west TN & creeping eastward. The heat coming this week is going to dry the ground out very quickly. What a long miserable hot summer it has been so far. Memphis knocking down 100+ days quickly while here in mid state were knocking down mid 90’s quickly. Dog days of summer usually are in august. Seems this whole summer has been dog days.

    It has been a show here with wind added in but no hail. Easily 2-3”. Has been lighting now for 5 hours constant.

    LR is not to be trusted. It’s been wrong the majority of times. Plus even with cooler near seasonal temps. No rain is setting up crops to be a huge bust & fire dangers increasing. Just not a pretty picture if things don’t change very soon.

    Looks like the heat is trying to be in this area for a few days this coming week. I will be at beach so hoping no rain & a clean blue ocean.

    Here we have had a solid 2-3” in last week including yesterday. My yard is coming back nicely. I have been mowing it higher which made it thicker. So held up much better to the drought & heat so far.

    Yep. Best my yard has ever looked. Choice between paying for water or gas. Gas wins. To think it’s only June. We have 3 months of this & everything will be brown & fall fire season could be really bad. Will be interesting if the grid can sustain in many parts of America. I saw where NES was asking many to conserve & keep their thermostats on 78. I also read where Australia is already having rolling blackouts. Which they are entering winter.

    We had one here night before. Solid 1”-2”. Even some minor flash flooding. I hope we have some niche thunderstorms about every 3-4 days all summer. My yard is looking wonderful.
  10. Matthew70
    Ugh. My yard is finally looks best it ever has. Thick & very green. Hopefully it turns into a wet summer. Pleaseeeeee!

    Glad I’m not going crazy thinking this has been a really windy period. My mom went to OR for first time a couple weeks ago. She said it was so pretty & so green. Locals said it’s like that all the time due to cooler & wet conditions. That nature loves it.

    I read somewhere maybe here that it’s possible to continue to have these well into May. Which would keep severe wx season not as active for these parts but also make it feel like we went from winter straight to summer. Though I do love 60’s for highs. Hardly any insects & no skitters. Fescue just loves it with rain. My yard might be best I’ve ever seen it. For me anytime we can delay upper 80’s & 90’s till at least June I’m good. This has to be the most wind for a season that I ever remember. The last 2-3 months have been windy.

    Here is Boro just some wind damage reports. I believe Jax is in Williamson which had a lot of wind damage reports also. The tornado warning went right over my house. Fortunately just insane winds. Most intense since moved here in 2005. The pic below has a video also. Still figuring out how to copy paste link. That vehicle is totaled after that lightning strike. Circuits & boards fried. https://twitter.com/RiskeChris/status/1514388956040867846?s=20&t=GsIQwKJ27GuN6t80O-EWgQ

    Yes here in Boro was the same. Been awhile it seems with some good lighting. The flash flooding is also impressive.

    Thinking more ARK & north.
  16. Matthew70
    Leconte has 6.5” today.

    I’m ready for spring to stay. It’s been a cold soccer season so far.
  18. Matthew70
    He sure is closer than I would feel comfortable. You just never know if the water has soften the ground around the edge. Great video but one slip & yikes.
  19. Matthew70
    Paducah sleet fest. Yuck.
  20. Matthew70
    I saw where OHX NWS only has 3-4” now for area. That’s not nearly as much as first thought. Guess models have backed off a lot.
  21. Matthew70
    Definitely will be some river flooding along with certain areas this week. My back yard will be a small pond & swamp for sure.
  22. Matthew70
    That is funny but that much rain will be very problematic for the oprymills along with many other areas. As for my ark. Not sure how big I can build it in the time given. Might have to leave some animals off. Snakes & skunks will be first to be cut. Thanks mossy for the update.
  23. Matthew70
    I’m hoping the models are overdoing the rainfall amounts. Especially for the first system. We get those type of amounts Id say it’s a good bet many schools will be closed Wednesday if not Tuesday. Maybe even half a day on Tuesday. Rivers are already high.
  24. Matthew70
    For the majority outside of mountains & higher elevations. It’s most likely cold cold rains here in mid state. I will take a hard pass on those. Please.
  25. Matthew70
    Looking at my forecast. It looks way to warm for anything but rain. To me it looks like spring arrives starting Sunday. Am I missing something or is forecast wrong on temps?
