It is hard to believe given how things have looked all night; however, considering (up until tonight) Independence has had the same fate multiple times this year I do believe it. I'm actually amazed we got what we did this evening.
2.75 inches of rain today and still raining - more than we've had in the last two months. Luckily avoided severe weather also - Waverly, Oelwein, Manchester and more were not so lucky.
