April 2024 Observations and Discussion
I got lucky. A heavy cell passed just west of Cedar Rapids and another heavy cell moved up through the middle of Cedar Rapids. I just barely got caught inside the eastern cell. There was barely any thunder, but it was gusty and the rain was very heavy. I finished with 0.57". Only one mile to my west only 0.12" fell. I wasn't expecting much from the secondary line, but it is actually really beefing up. There is a nasty cell near Ottumwa. -

I see the airport is reporting a 48mph gust. I don't get it. I can literally see the airport out my office window at work and it didn't get nearly that windy here. I've golfed in stronger winds than what just moved through. -

Got a decent downpour here and some really loud thunder, but the wind never really picked up much at all. It wasn't anywhere near severe level. The warning seemed unnecessary. -

April 2024 Weather in the PNW
When I was little I was inside watching Saturday morning cartoons and my mom was outside working in the flower beds. We had the windows open to air out the house, and my mom started yelling for me. I ran to the window and she yelled at me to hurry up and close the windows. I looked up the street and I could see this huge green cloud blowing down the street headed our way, and as the gust wall hit each tree, the tree shook off a bunch of pollen that added to the cloud. It was pretty wild.
