6/14/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Not a drop here, again! Could see and smell rain about 5 miles west, and moving due north. Painful to watch that but glad some areas received wetting rainfall!
6/15/2013 7:00 AM 0.42 M M M M I wasn't home at the time the storms moved through, and I'm still shocked. Several waves I was told by my teen aged daughter, one storm that dropped pea sized hail. So a great and MUCH NEEDED day of rainfall. If we can get measurable today it will be first time with back to back measurable precip since April 9-10.
7/2/2013 7:00 AM 0.67 M M M M Heavy downpour Monday afternoon for 20-25 minutes just before 4pm. Heavy rain was accompanied by 1/2" diameter hail that covered the ground up to an inch in spots. Did a number on our garden-- cabbage and tomatoes suffered the most damage. BUT thank goodness for the rain. Greatest 24-hour total since April 2012!

7/8/2013 7:00 AM 0.06 M M M M Another nice pre-dawn shower, this time around 3:30am adn it lasted for 10 minutes or so. Otherwise, thunderstorms Sunday afternoon/evening roamed just east of our place.
