Rain

channel 4 weather guy at noon says st cloud could get 2 inches of rain the next few days……..

just to make sure we get some of that…..i’m starting my campfire and putting beer on ice………it shall come!!!!!!

Just had an hour’s worth of heavy rain and thunder here outside Cloquet. One small cell right over the top of us. Bet we got at least a 1/2 inch.

7 miles up I-35, my buddy in Esko did not get a drop yet. Crazy….

Also sudden downpours in Brainerd/Baxter today… it had to happen for Lakes Jam

It just rained, hailed, and extreme winds in north branch. Driving home from work watched my temp gauge go from 88 to 63 degrees while it was pouring.

Got hit pretty hard here…by some blue moons on the tritoon this afternoon.

Still sunny, still sitting at 0.42” of rain in 34 days here.

LOL

Not a drop of rain today for us…

Got about 4 drops in Farmtown.

So far we are at 0.0” here on the banks of Pool 4 again for this “washout” of a weekend that was predicted by the weather hype people also known as meteorologists. I saw legitimate lightning this afternoon but it all split around us.

If things progress as future radar shows, we could get enough drops to make you wonder whether or not it’s raining in the next few hours, but that’s the best shot

Sounds like the rain we got was predicted to slide out over MN, but instead hung over North Dakota all day.

2.5” in Walker since Friday Eve. 2.2”of those inches were from sat nite

I don’t have a way to measure but it was coming down in the minnetonka area last night for a good chunk of the night

up here in the land of rocks and cows, (Cold Spring) i had an inch and a tenth during the nite. 2 tenths on thursday……garden in happy!!! looks like we could get some more here this morning!!!!

Man did we need that rain up at my hunting property. We’ve had just 1.25 inches of rain since May 1 up there.

My spring planted food plot soybeans were an absolute fail. No germination and what did germinate the deer immediately gobble down as soon as they got three inches high.

I was up there on Friday planting like crazy to get a field of clover replaced before the forecasted rain came. Fortunately it materialized and the Hinckley area has gotten over an inch so far.

1″ 9 miles north of walker last night. Saturday night

Since Friday I’ve gotten just shy of an inch. Much needed and everything is greening up already. It’s amazing how much you can water and it doesn’t do much but a little rain perks it right up.

you got that right!!!!!!!!!

We have received 2″ of rain in Blackduck the last two days with more rain in the forecast for today.

Nothing down here, I think the last rain we had was 3 weeks ago.

Denny we hadn’t had any rain to speak of for a month. Hope yours is coming soon.

I think Gus gets signed soon. He and his wife just had a baby and that was likely a distraction the last few weeks.

Had storms on all sides of us throughout the day with no rain but finally got hit late last night. Good solid rain finally.

It’s been raining decently and steadily for the last eight hours here in MH/Eagan area. Thank the lord.

I got smoked last night around 10:30. Hail, torrential rain, thunder/lightning. Almost 2 inches in my gauge.

Eagan since last nite we’ve had just shy of an inch. Still raining off and on now

Thanks Capt! We missed everything again today too, that is except for a gorgeous day with lower temps and the wonderful wind!
