6/29/2020 7:00 AM 0.01 M M M M One little cloud elected to deposit about 2 minutes of rain on us yesterday morning. Didn't note the time as I was busy with other things. No lightning, no thunder, just big drops of rain.
6/30/2020 6:30 AM 1.28 M M M M Watched a cell start to blow up about 13 miles south (St Charles, IL), became a massive cell about 5 miles south of us, and went SEVERE level over us. Storm started here at 3:15 with heavy downpour, lightning, some wind. GR2A radar indicated hail was to our east. Temp dropped 91 to 69F in about 20 minutes. Majority of the above reported rain fell in first 20-25 minutes. A second cell, following the same path as the first did NOT go severe but dumped a fair amount less than an hour later. Overall, storms lasted just over two hours and were out of here by 5:20 PM.
