Lightning Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Been interesting here as dry air has been killing everything coming across the state for the past 18 hours. Finally it is beginning to rain east of I75/US23 and of course it has shifted just north of MBY . Models are now keeping the heavier stuff just to my south tonight into tomorrow. At this point I am going to be surprise if I can even get a 1/2". Sad after several days of 1-2" QPF model runs. Oh well win some / lose some. I'll take a lose some this time and like it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Massive 3-day soaker ongoing. Up to 1.42" for today bringing the 48hr total up to 3.65". More rain to come tonight, so 4"+ looking likely. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 I'm at 0.58" today (1+" only a mile west of me) and 1.89" since Wednesday. More good rain is moving in now and should total another half to one inch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More rain to come tonight, so 4"+ looking likely. Massive. Over-performing for you no doubt. Models are all over the place for here and the trend acknowledged by the pros is even more lame than it looked a couple days ago. The trend we do have on our side is rain makers over-performing here all summer. Don't need the moisture like y'all tho, so I'm fine and glad some of you guys are finally getting hit.

hawkeye_wx Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Another 1.17" last evening/night boosted my Wed-Fri total to 3.06". This is, by far, the biggest precip event of 2023. The drought has been so bad, 3.06" easily beats any MONTH since March. Personal stations only a mile west and a few miles north of me got 4.00-4.50". We still have a long way to go to end the drought (still -10" since May), but this is a great start. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrdIowPitMsp Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Rained until just south of Duluth on us. Colors are still great up here. Maples are done but the birch/aspen, and the underbrush are ablaze. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 The final total is 4.23" here. Ground feels pretty spongy walking around the yard. Farmers had worked pretty hard to get most of the fields harvested over the past few weeks, but some were delayed by the recent rains. Looks to dry out for them so they can get back out again here pretty soon. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the CoCoRAHS web site, the map on top of the page is the interactive map. Then, you have to push the button for "RANGE" and then you have to choose two calendar days. You might want to zoom in to a local area before doing the multi-day calculation. (note sure if that's important.) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t last long before it goes back to a drizzle but we’re definitely picking up a lot of rain tonight in addition to what we’ve already gotten. The narrow band is just right over us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomp2mp Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 DTX posted today that the growing season has officially ended for SEMI. I don't recall seeing any frost advisories in the CWA this autumn. How often does that happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
