Rain storm Ara, / Arabella.





You can see the rain on the car's out there and this is also the first named system of this season.


The name of this storm is Ara, nicknamed Arabella, Which means (Bring Rain) and she is for sure bringing the rain! Here in Lafayette we are up to .80" of rain and still raining. We could see this off and on scattered rain showers through out the night and into early morning tomorrow but don't worry it won't be an all day rain tomorrow it should clear out by late morning to early afternoon. But what fun it has been tracking this rain storm we have not seen anything like this since Ike, went through. Though not as bad as Ike, was yes we had some gusty wind's at times but nothing to bad. Also now major flooding like before. However some puddles did form as you can see below.


We had three quarter's of an inch of rain on our porch earlier today you can see the big raindrop's falling into the puddle. So the rainfall totals will still continue to rise through the night and I will try to post as many rainfall totals on here tomorrow as possible. So you all can enjoy tracking the rain or read a good book as the rain tap's your window which ever you want to do it is a great day to do so..... I will see you all soon.....
