Another 4-5" rain event just north of Des Moines today. That area has been hammered this summer. Somewhere in that area has probably had 20+ inches of rain in the past two months.
This morning's leftover cloud field from the decaying early morning precip co ck blocked our storm potential here. New stuff firing just south.
Guess we'll try again Monday.
Should have a nice long break from mowing in about a week or so as the lawns will start to fry up. Already been over a week without a drop of rain, and a long string of 90s on the way.
A couple of the op Euro runs flexed 100-105 degree heat in here later next week, but have since backed off. Will likely end up with our usual 92-95 type of heat with high dews.
Yeah just about ever 100 degree day that I can remember here came during either short term or long term dry conditions. Only exception was the 1995 heat wave which was on another level.
