10/2/2015 7:00 AM 0.96 M M M M This very welcome rain after three dry weeks once again illustrates the variability from thunderstorms. Two nearby stations - the airport and a Ga. weather station received very little rain. There was some lightning activity during the heaviest rain period but little wind.
10/3/2015 7:00 AM 1.39 M M M M Light to heavy rain (at times) from late afternoon into the wee hours of the night. A good soaker!

12/16/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Because of the unusual mild temps (near 80 days and upper 60s nights) residential grass is not dormant, trees have been late to drop their leaves, plants that are dormant in the winter are not, etc. We frequently joke about the "seasons" here in deep south Georgia. They are nearly summer, SUMMER, still summer and whatever else is left. If the expected warming patterns continue I expect there will be no winter here.

Normally, with a thunderstorm line we get the big bang on the front end - not this time! Weather observation often has surprises, no?

7/13/2016 7:00 AM 0.32 M M M M We were just on the NE edge of the late afternoon thunderstorm yesterday and are grateful for the .32. However, just a few blocks west and south over a fairly large area of the county the totals were in the 2 inch range. But we did get the full affect of the storm in one respect - our electric power was out for some 5 hours! With this small amount of rainfall we climbed to a total of about 1 inch the past three weeks. Well perhaps tonight will be our turn???

7/29/2016 8/05/2016 7:00 AM 8 1.32 M M From all that I could put together a fairly severe thunderstorm around 4 p.m. 8/4 dropped most of the total precip for this report. It also caused some power spikes and outages and may have damaged one or more electrical circuits in our home including the HVAC. We arrived home from a one week trip about an hour after the storm - soooo - welcome home brother.
