Got dry slotted. Did get the cloud cover and rain cooled breeze minus the rain though. Take what you can get I guess. Had the same thing where I work in Alton...the core skirted less than a mile north and another storm blew up on our doorstep but went about a mile or two south leaving us with a breezy shower or two inbetween and lightning strikes all around. It was cool to watch. |

I can hear bits of thunder, here and there very faintly, but nothing else. I'm good. We got over 2 inches of rain yesterday, don't need it.

 Discussion...Abundant moisture and roughly 3000 J per kg of instability along a quasi-stationary boundary will continue to focus and sustain thunderstorms capable of producing rainfall rates around 1.5 inches per hour over the next few hours. 00Z soundings from the area and GPS derived PW values were both at or above 2 inches in a corridor from southeast Missouri northeastward into Indiana. The greatest risk for flash flooding will be along and near a quasi-stationary front...which happened to be located along or near a region where flash flood guidance was as low as 1.7 to 2.0 inches per hour. Given that rainfall rates of 1.5 inches per hour are possible...and that there will continue to be a threat for cells to repeat or train across the same area that has been made prone to flooding by recent rainfall...think that the risk of flash flooding will remain possible into the late evening. |

The current precip pattern reminds me of a classic I-44 overrunning event in the winter.

lol, we've had like 4 storms move right towards us and fall apart before reaching here. The most recent was the most potent with light to mod rain for 5 minutes.

Same here. No thunder or lightning with this last little downpour either. Seems to be shifting further southeast now.

Lightning to my north by 2 miles. It looks like the line still might just brush me. It seems to be making some eastward progress along with the northeast movement of the individual cells. We had a shower earlier around 6. Enough to soak the ground but all is dry again on the concrete.
