Carvers Gap Posted June 27, 2022 Author Share Posted June 27, 2022 We got about 0.50" since last night. Everything is so brown, not sure how much it is going to help. It did give us a break in watering the garden today! Thankful for that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Went to full on flooding here. Dry ground likely made for faster runoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Ended up with over 3 inches of rain yesterday and this morning. Could do without it being all or nothing but was happy to get it yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Had a nice storm a bit ago and another is knocking on the door. Should start July off wet after a relatively dry June. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew70 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Here we have had a solid 2-3” in last week including yesterday. My yard is coming back nicely. I have been mowing it higher which made it thicker. So held up much better to the drought & heat so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Had some rain July 1st, July 2nd, July 3rd and a good shower is going now. Looks like several good shots at rain the rest of the week. No brown grass or anything here, fortunately. Did have to water the garden a couple times last month during the dry stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted July 5, 2022 Author Share Posted July 5, 2022 Finally, rain!!! My yard is fried, but it will green up some with this. Big thunderstorm complex over TRI heading SE. Loads of rain here. I would say we are somewhere between 0.5-0.75". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 That was a pretty good storm. Second round of rain today. Looks like the one in Scott County might be building this way too but it may stick West of here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Crazy amounts of Thunder with these storms. It's just non stop off to my south right now. There's not a 5 second gap where the thunder isn't rolling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stovepipe Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I got absolutely hammered in west Knox tonight. The storm that came through was quite strong as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Storms are firing again and the thunder is almost non-stop again. Not raining here yet but they are close. Hopefully we get the rain and not the big power outages from yesterday. Also a friend in Powell got golfball sized hail yesterday. Was wondering if @PowellVolzgot any of that action.

John1122 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 About to get another round. Once again, a lot of thunder and lightning with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Looks like Clinton got today what Powell got yesterday. My friend who lives close to downtown Clinton posted photos of large trees down and power poles snapped in half on her street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Extremely heavy rain this morning and again now. Very windy storm with drenching rain moving through. This storm will probably put me over 5 inches for July as heavy as it's raining right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fountainguy97 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 My week so far. Miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss. 3 weeks with barely a drop. Is it December yet? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jed33 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Finally had a decent rain last night here at the house. Picked up 0.51in. We’ve also been missing out on most of the heavier rains since the first of June. For June, we picked up a total of 1.43in and so far July 0.75in. Needless to say, we’ve had to water, water, water. I’m sure my water bill will be sky high! I’m really hoping that tonight into tomorrow maybe we can finally pick up at least an inch from a storm or two. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Another very rainy evening. July is looking like many months the last several years where we may run at double digit rainfall totals. Over 6 inches for the month already with rain falling 7 of the 8 days of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Back in rain forest mode with rain 8 of the last 9 days. Another storm with lots of lightning and heavy rain underway right now. That's the third round today of heavy rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 That was a very heavy rain storm. Some 3+ inch totals in the last three hours. Big time flash flooding underway here with several impassable roads. No flood advisory or warning issued but very much need one. 5.86 inches of rain in the last 3 days here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1234snow Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Added another inch in the last hour of so according to radar. It has come a heavy storm/rain every evening/night since Tuesday. Many close by lightning strikes and good wind on most of the nights. Some good soaking rain after the initial line of storms have moved through each evening. Tonight is more of a slow moving storm motion with heavy downpours and no lightning. I will guess around 5-6 inches of rain this week. Quite the contrast from the drought we have had. Each day this week made it above 90 before the storms until todays high of 83. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 No sooner do I post that than a flood advisory was issued. Raining moderately still but backed off from the deluge earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fountainguy97 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Well my whining paid off. 2.4" last few days. weird day today for mid July. If only these were the colors of returns today. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Drought at my house is ending. After 2-3 dry weeks, missed twice. Then our luck turned. Four days in a row of at least a good downpour - two of which included steady rain after. Temps still look AN the coming week, but not as strong as prior weeks. Precip will be hit and miss of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
