My sister is a wiccan witch . We are heading to Carhenge in Nebraska.  Thousands of wicca people are converging there.  I'm not wiccan. But it should be fun anyway.

This storm has dropped an estimated 5.5" on the Black Hills mountaintops-- this is probably causing raging creeks and rivers, perhaps threatening a few rural areas and campgrounds. I hope there weren't any hikers caught in that. That's some major water and lightning.

This brings to mind the 1972 Rapid city flood. It started in the Hills near keystone.  There were 15'' of rain in 6 hours and the flood killed 239 people.  I don't think it is likely to happen again.

There is a severe thunderstorm nearly stationary over Custer State park in the South Dakota Black Hills right now. 3" hail was reported. Vehicles are said to be stuck in accumulating hail. Flash flooding may be ongoing.I don't know how to post the warnings. It is the Rapid city  SD weather office.
