Torrential rains here now.  I had 2.44" in the gauge since last evening before this downpour.  Interested to see where this ends up.  Approaching top 5 rainfall in a 24-hour period territory in my 10+ years at this location.

Edit- 0.89" in the past 30 minutes brings the storm total here to 3.29"

Daily rainfall records were broken at CHO (records since Nov. 1998) and McCormick (records date back to 1890s) last night/this morning. Of course, McCormick's data goes from 8A to 8A and captured all of the event with 3.08" of rain. The old record was 1.61". LMAO! CHO broke the old record from last year of 0.56" by picking up 1.79". We picked up 1.44" last night, beating the old May 4th record of 0.52" set in 2011. This is also the most rain we've seen with a rain event since the last few weeks of September 2015.

Got soaked by two periods of heavy rain tonight, smack dab in the middle of my jebwalk.

Would you take a look at that energy diving down thru Illinois?!!! It's going straight for the base of the trough! https://radar.weather.gov/Conus/full_loop.php

What a blocking scenario! If this were January................

 

If this WERE January we would all be ass deep in snow.
