Tom Posted June 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Looks like my area got socked with heavy rains last night: Palwaukee Executive Airport in Wheeling got 2.45" of rain between 3:59 AM and 4:55 AM!! This extremely heavy rainfall is likely to result in flash flooding!

St Paul Storm Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 HRRR doing a terrible job this morning. Storms firing up all over the place already. The majority of the rain was supposed to hit later today.

Iowawx Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Just had a warned thunderstorm move through here. Only had pea size hail but easily got over an inch of rain, with a bit more still coming down. Sun is out in western Iowa, if we get sunshine here today, then we could really get some strong storms going later today, depends on how much sun we get. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted June 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 You guys near CR getting some good rains? Radar looks decent to score a nice downpour. Meanwhile, it's been toasty and steamy here in STL with temps in the low 90's and DP's in the mid 60's. Hoping to see some storms later tonight into tomorrow.

Hawkeye Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 I was screwed again this morning. For the second time in the last month, a heavy rain event largely bypassed my part of the city. I only picked up a quarter inch while north, south, and east there are stations with 1-1.6".

Iowawx Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 SPC has increased severe potential here for later today.

CentralNebWeather Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Very disappointing severe weather season so far here. Northern Nebraska seems to be hit night after night. Luckily we have gotten some decent rains but the extended looks very hot and humid with very small storm chances. Hopefully that changes.

jaster220 Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Global warming isn’t real It's very real but the cause is not what Gore and Co. were selling to ignorant sheoples. We didn't cause it and we can't stop it by a reduction in our "foot print". I am however in agreement with wise usage of what resources we've got left on this globe. We've been the most wasteful of societies (Americans). We've made some strides in the right direction tho.

Hawkeye Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Recent runs of the HRRR are now trying to keep everything northeast of Cedar Rapids tonight. I'm going to flip out if that happens.

Iowawx Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Not much severe weather here from first cell, mostly just lots of thunder and heavy rain. Lots of rain yet to move through here tonight, line along highway 20 is begging to move SE and cells are popping up all over Iowa. Defiantly in for a stormy night. Rivers around here are really going to rise, northern Iowa has seen rainfall totals as high as 8 inches, and lots of rain tonight will cause rivers to rise. River flooding could be an issue here in the coming days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
