Missed out on everything today.  Heavy rain at work, 3 miles north of mby, and rain at the gym, 2 miles east of mby.  Storms all around, and never got anything but sunshine on mby.  Some cells just off to my west right now.... not holding my breath.

You live in Hell.

I posted a whopping 0.03 from a stalled out storm just west of me yesterday evening. Did have some nice inflow gusts though. 4 miles west in town (Covington) all the underpasses had 3-5 foot of water in them and water was running everywhere, with 1-2 foot of water in yards! I'd estimate 3 inches fell in about 45 minutes.

Those orographic effects are crazy.  I saw an annual rainfall map and his area averages something like 30 inches, while areas not too far away are over 60!  He should have a rock garden LOL.

I missed all the rain yesterday as well. It got close and we actually went under a warning at one point but it fell apart.

It's maddening.  It can (and often is) - especially in the summer - pouring rain within 1-2 miles from me, while I barely get a drop.  Yesterday was a prime example.  As soon as I got about 2 miles north on my way to work this morning there were ditches filled with water and standing water in places from last nights rain... of which I recorded a trace.  That was the third such near miss yesterday.
