Saw a lot of lightning this evening but the storms have rotated from SE Kentucky into Scott County. One pulsed for about 5 minutes just NE of me but it died quickly.
Another round of drenching rain underway now, but 0 thunder in this one. Looks like the dynamics for t-storms are out of here now. Hopefully things clear out some tomorrow.
Had an epic rainer with pea sized hail and probably 40mph winds around 4:30. Caused quite a few extra flooding issues. Well over 4 inches in the last 18 hours now.
Had a pretty strong storm roll by a bit ago and it's thundering quite frequently now with a major downpour. That heavy rain has been the main story here. Between last night and today, I've gotten 3.4 inches and it's adding on fast.
.74 from that storm. Watered me tomatoes about 2 hours before it hit. One of the better ways to bring rain, since I actually carry creek water in a 5 gallon bucket to water them.
Managed some t-storms and rain here around midnight to 2am last night. Looks like there could be some heavy stuff Friday.
This is the first time in 3 or 4 years we've not had at least one historic flooding event by this point in the year. So while it's not truly dry here, it seems like it compared to the last several years.
Looking at the Williston ND obs right now, 32 degrees, heavy snow, winds N at 40 with gusts to 60. Now that's a true epic blizzard. Crazy they haven't gotten two in a couple of weeks in mid and late April.
Two big frosts in a row the last two days. Not sure if they are over or not. I won't plant anything susceptible until May 5th comes with a good forecast for the next 5 or 10 days.
The Vols tried some bizarre experiment with wooden bats and Smokies stadium and it cost them tying the SEC win streak record. Hate that they pulled that with so much on the line.
