This current storm has brought 2" of rain in 20 minutes, and it is still raining.

A regular gully washer.

Just issued a severe thunderstorm warning.

Wow... very impressive rainfall! If more thunderstorms hit him with that amount of rainfall, he probably got 4"+! :o

We ended up with just short of 4" in some areas of town. I ended up with about 3" overall.

The rainfall rate really slowed down, and was more manageable.

Thanks for replying. Looks like your lack of rainfall has caught up in a hurry. How are things looking tonight?

Right now, we are clear. Northeast Nebraska is getting the brundt tonight, but nothing like last night.

If we get anything, it will be early morning.

I'm glad nothing REAL severe is going on... they really don't need it! :o I saw a squall line that was developing in NE Nebraska a bit earlier this morning... :o Hope everyone stays safe in that area. :)
