Just off the deck low clouds raced in and at one point visibility dropped substantially, but I would guess the winds did not exceed 40kts... may have been worse a few miles south per your report.

Only 35 mph at EEN, but somewhere probably got a good gust as that core collapsed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low, low visibility and huge drops. Over an inch now...increasing rapidly haha. Might be the largest rain drops I've seen in a long time. Thought it was hailing but these drops are enormous. Look at how much water those drops are displacing, like dropping ping pong balls into a puddle ...pretty crazy how quick that adds up. Looks like around 1.25" now. Edit-- Looks like it's done and it's between 1.2-1.3" as this rain gauge only has tenths. Two PWS a couple miles south are at 1.12" and 1.18", so it's in that ballpark.
