8/6/2013 5:00 AM 0.07 M M M M Going to have storms this afternoon, with substantial potential power.
8/7/2013 5:00 AM 1.12 M M M M 2 storms last night, 1st w rain rate <1.5"/hr (luckily that rate didn't continue!); hail from pea to golf ball w average large grape. Hail pad just destroyed - too many hits to count, no portion of surface greater than .25" not hit. You would be surprised how a golf ball sized hail stones hitting the aluminum awning over the window, right next to where you are sitting will wake you up! Really echoes - just like in cartoons! Hail stones last night were odd mix: almost entirely white ice (few, if any clear stones seen (perhaps a few very small ones) and most of the hail stones were malleable, for lack of better word. Were hard but gentle pressure with finger and stone changed from round-ish to more flat. Had heard of "soft" hail stones but thought they were old wives tail. Could someone email info? A book, online resource, anything appreciated. Email: silyrabbt@aol.com -- thx in advance!

8/17/2013 5:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M where has all the precipitation gone? The national radar is almost bare - a few blips in SE and NE but remainder of country is just bare. Must be raining on other side of the world, right?
