  1. I'll be curious to see if they find anything in Campbell. Generally, as the graphic shows we are the least Tornado prone County in the whole state. The possible Tornado today was just right along the border of Campbell and Scott. The 1 confirmed Tornado in that 70 year period here also barely clipped Campbell County but on the far eastern border. I've always assumed Cross Mtn plays a big role in disrupting storms that are possibly tornadoic here since 99 percent of them seem to move SW to NE and it shoots up to nearly 4000 feet in the SW section of Campbell. The one Tornado that had hit here came from the NW to the SE on the Claiborne line.
  2. Straight Creek on the Scott/Campbell border. https://streamable.com/s63jgb
  3. From 141/Royal Blue exit looking West during storm.
  4. I'm going to do some container gardening this year and plant more corn and sunflowers in my plowed areas. I'll probably get things in around May 10th. I never try before then. To many first week of May freezes hit my area.
  5. Some lines down. A barn destroyed in the area. But so far no reports of injury.
  6. Local hail. https://streamable.com/avhs6q
  7. Had some quarter to slightly larger hail. No Tornado thankfully. The debris ball passed a but NW of me.
  8. Hook is going to pass very close to me very soon. Frequent thunder.
  9. Starting to get a lot of thunder here.
  10. Fire Department reported Tornado on the ground in Scott County.
  11. Hit 23 this morning. Fortunately the actual fruit trees haven't budded yet. I suspect we will have at least one, if not two more Freeze threats before it's over.
  12. Had a few flakes at times today. The wind is brisk.
  13. After 1.18 inches of rain today, going to end March with 14.94 inches of rain.
  14. Anyone else get an error message when trying to use the nws point forecast?
  15. The falls at Little Egypt on Cumberland Mtn in Caryville brought out the flooding version of the guy doing donuts on the interstate during snow events. https://streamable.com/upl4no
  16. We don't get a ton of activity once severe season ends, so this thread should carry us til September/Fall.
  17. The skies are just outstandingly blue today. Didn't see much of that this winter. Was gray most of the year.
  18. A driver tried to cross the flooded creek Saturday night, fortunately the driver escaped. The SUV did not. This popped out today a long way down stream.
  19. 31 this morning. Apple trees are about to bloom here. Low is supposed to be 22 Friday morning. I was hoping the 3 mornings in the low 20s a couple weeks ago would slow the apple trees down but no luck.
  20. The rain is relentless here. I've emptied my gauges 3 times since midnight and it's been 1.3 or 1.4 inches each time, that after 2+ inches yesterday and 3+ 2 days ago. The road in front of my house is a white water river. The bridge below my house has for the first time in my life been overtopped by flood water. Highways are closed here I've never seen flood. Creeks are literally 20+ feet above normal and 10 feet above flood stage here. If you live near running water and at the bottom of a ridge or mountain your house is likely under water here this morning. Some have been reported on the scanner as being completely submerged.
  21. Currently under a downpour. The whole county is reporting 4 or 5 feet of water across roads in various low spots. Creeks that were dredged years ago to prevent flooding are out of their banks. Entire homes are under water in multiple area.
  22. Still very heavy rain falling. The scanner hasn't stopped for almost 3 hours now. It had rained 2 inches between 10pm and midnight. If it will slack off I will head out for another check. We had one penny sized hailer earlier but no where near like other areas have had. Just the flooding here.
  23. You too man. These floods are devastating.
  24. There are about a half dozen boat rescues underway here. A boat dealership had to loan out some boats to the fire departments and rescue squads.
