stockwiz Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 A month after the last "bomb cyclone" that gave us mostly rain that got absorbed by our snowpack which has since melted and just mere days after some areas around where I live got upwards of 4 inches of rain from slow moving bands during the night, with near record high water tables in the town I live, with one resident saying his sump pump never ran for 26 years and now it's overwhelmed with an inch of water in his basement, we are on the verge of another storm that may just overwhelm my basement sump pump's ability to keep up.. luckily where I live it's expected to be all snow which MAY give the rivers time to lower the water table as it melts and minimize any hydrological impacts for residents in our area. The locals here are "tired of water." 14-20 inches of snow forecast here. The further south the storm track, the better. Discuss. https://www.weather.gov/fsd/stormtotalsnow https://www.keloland.com/weather/forecast/storm-center-update-monday-am-april-8th/1907688982 Also, I'll consider streaming a video of my front yard using youtube live if it works properly.

Upper Level LOL Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 There's already another thread for this same system (with a typo in the title date) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not see that thread, however it seems like it would be better put in the "ohio valley" subforum. Regardless, the moderators may choose to take any action they wish in the matter.

My problem....no boots for Jebwalking. But no matter. My Converse will just get very wet and cold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stockwiz Posted April 11, 2019 Author Share Posted April 11, 2019 We've managed to fortunately stay more dry so far than they predicted here in Brookings area so far. The majority of the precip has kind of gone around us.. we just got a bit lucky so far. Slightly less moisture in the system, slightly more north track so far. Still predicting the brunt of the storm to hit after midnight tonight, does look like it's coming, also seeing signs of strengthening the last hour.

batteen Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 25" at my farm. Just what the doctor ordered... At least the soil had somewhat thawed after the last blizzard and snow melt. This one was melting from the bottom as it fell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
