Recap of last night's thunderstorms...
The forecast did work out rather well...As thunderstorms moved into Eastern MN the storms did weaken below strong and severe limits as INSTBY in Eastern MN and Western.Northwestern WI along with my Southern FA...This was a on going through most of the evening...Cold front was able to kick of a line a strong to severe thunderstorms...At one point storms over Pine County MN did look like they were weaken...So we headed out to get some lightning pictures...Storms did get stronger and Burnett and then Washburn Counties went under a severe thunderstorm warning...So Tammy and I head North to see what was going on...Storms really weaken when they got into Central Washburn County...We then head back for home...Radar was showing mod to heavy rain in Polk County and St.Croix County...The thunderstorms were not that strong,just mod to heavy rain...Once the rain ended we followed them trying to get what little CGS pictures...Got more sheet lightning ...See post below for that....Anyway I did see a on the LSR 4 miles SW of Danburry a storm spotter reported several large trees blown down at 9:48 PM...However most of the strong and severe thunderstorm did stay over in MN like was FCSTD..Not a widespread event for my WI FA....
One thing that was good was most of the FA did get much needed rainfall...Here at the office we picked up 0.50"...0.25 to 0.50 was the rule for most on my Central and Northern areas...Over in MN some areas picked up as much as 6" of rain...So this will for sure help the drought conditions out....Forecast forthcoming..See above...
