That crap went through here about 3:30. We had some good hail and lots of wind. It was over as quick as it started. Its a fast moving front.

We got it about the same time. Very heavy rain and hail for about half an hour. Traffic came to a halt on the spressway for a while.

Yeah, that was a blizzard here this morning. Dumped a couple of inches really fast and moved out your way.

Was there a storm?
Oh yeah, it did thunder earlier today.... I guess that mut have been it. We don't have windows to see out at our office. (They like to keep the engineers working instead of looking outside.)

He protested at first, but he was speechless after that

Real problem here is that the Meramec River (r/h blue arrow) was already out of it's banks from all of the rain we had last week. The train tracks (l/h blue arrow) is the only thing that'll keep it from reaching my house (knock wood!). Everything to the right of the train tracks is already in deep shit (fish shit that is)!

It's supposed to go through here about 4am...we're already at record flooding from the rain and snow we've had pretty consistently since Dec 20th.
I hope Engman's ok, he's down in southern Indiana where it's even worse.

Pouring like a MoFo all the way home from work, and still lots of lightening out to the west.
Mark located by any flowing bodys of water he need to be concerned about?!
Ground is completely saturated out here, no where for the extra water to go but up and out (hope my sump pump doesn't pick tonight to crap-out on me)!
