hail/street floods reported in Parker

Just got 0.42" rain in 16 minutes with rates peaking at 2.5"/hr. All done though. Parts of Parker got hammered. Saw some broad rotation in the cloud base on my way home from work in Aurora.

EDIT: round 2 developing from outflow. Quite an interesting afternoon, all of a sudden!

0.4" so far, still more coming though we'll see if it stays far enough south to get me to a half inch.

That puts me over 3" for the month. Best month in a long time

Just got nailed by a storm, almost half an inch. Up to 2.6" on the month.

That being said, there have been many times where August has been much wetter than July (2022 is the only real recent example, but quite a few further back). We are badly due for a very wet August for the region...the last one was 2008.

I am a prophet.
