Starting to get flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder in Jacksonville. Worst will stay to the west. Seeing a few CG strikes. Just missing the brunt of an intense thunderstorm.

Just missing the brunt of an intense thunderstorm. You might stand a better chance with the one back behind it. Don't know that it can do much in the wake of the main storm, but if it doesn't mess the air mass up too bad to it's east you may stand a shot at a stronger thundershower/storm |

Yeah, just looked closer at the radar, more convection around you than I thought. Better than what I'm getting, got a few large drops for about 5 minutes. Distant thunder and lightning |

At about 8pm I written this off. I had a few heavy rain showers but no thunder and lightning. I was noticing the stuff around Indianapolis and was thinking that it would serve to give us another dose of heavy rain. All of a sudden I heard the sky let loose around 11:30 so I decided to check and I saw that I was under a Warning. I saw all the hail on the radar so I decided to go to the balcony like I do every time it storms.
I can't verify if it hailed or not since it was so dark and raining so hard. There was constant lightning. Not much thunder, a few low growls. Winds might have gusted to 30mph at brief moments. The main thing with this storm was the rain. That was the heaviest rain I had seen in my 7 years of following the weather. It was crazy. I had never seen it rain so hard. The street I live on is a rather busy and winding street. The sewers could not keep up with the water. The street was starting to flood. It looked like my street was a creek filling with water rapidly. It was fun to watch. Once the rain slowed a bit the sewers caught up and the water receded just as fast as it rose. I never get a good event in the daytime. I would love to tape some of these events. But every time I get a good storm it is at night. Well that made my day. I can go to sleep with a smile now. Goodnite. -------------------- Accuweather please give us our own Midwest area forecaster/video blogger

QUOTE(snowlover2 @ Apr 26 2012, 03:21 AM) Getting one heck of a lightning show from the storms just north of me. Nice. Stay safe. Some hail reports for this early is impressive. 1.75" hail reported in Putnam County, TN. http://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?si...&glossary=0 |
