I picked up another 0.73" of rain today. My May total is now 4.61", with 3.83" of that falling since last Thursday.

Today is a candidate for worst weather day of the month... 50º, rain, wind gusting to 40 mph. I thought we had turned the corner a week or two ago, but maybe this time it'll be true. Today's euro has us reaching at least 70º every day for the next ten days, with a few 80s mixed in.

We peaked in the upper 50s today. Tomorrow we'll be stuck in the low to mid 50s with rain and wind. We sure have had a lot of this.

OKC cancelled school today, but it'll be 9pm before any storms even reach OKC.

Every run of the models looks about the same. The front pretty much stalls in the area through the entire period. Here is the new 10-day euro. The newly-planted garden will be begging for mercy.

Cedar Rapids was in the prime spot this evening as the main wave lifted north through the region. I received 1.99" of rain this evening, making my daily total 2.16". Over the last couple days I've received 3.05". There is potential for more rounds of heavy rain next week.

I picked up 0.89" of rain from round #1. It would be nice if we could consistently get something halfway between 50s and 90.

A nasty-looking cell with hail cores is about to hit Cyclone.

Total bust here, just some good lightning and a few hundredths of an inch of rain. It has just been a real struggle to get anything this spring. Tomorrow everything leaps north of my area. Hopefully, we can scrape something out of this pattern late in the weekend.

The first good light show of the season here, currently. However, much of this is going to miss south of Cedar Rapids.

It's a spectacular day across Iowa... mid 60s with light wind.

We dropped into the 30s again this morning. Tonight is finally the last cold night before Mother Nature switches us to a genuine late-spring pattern.

Still 8 degrees below avg today, but MUCH better than yesterday.

We're stuck in the mid 40s today with thick clouds and wind. Yuck.
