hawkeye_wx Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 My April precip total is 3.77", nowhere close to what Cyclone received. We had plenty of rainy days, but we received mostly light to moderate rain. Much of the thunderstorm action remained south and east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
