-----------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------Hey everyone! Yes, that's right we are in this flood warning but it is looking like we will be able to have this warning lifted here before to long. As you can see above tonight we are currently at around 10.78ft and flood stage if at 11.0ft. So yes we are close but still under flood stage. And we are falling not rising! Thank goodness. We are expected to fall to around 9.2ft by later this afternoon as you can also see above. Now Action stage is at around 7.0ft. At which we are still a good two to two and a half feet above.



Now yes, we do have more rain on the way here real soon.....But when??? Well, I think we will be looking for rain by as soon as Tomorrow. Yes, rain is currently looking to start sometime around that afternoon after 2:pm. Now you can rest with ease knowing that there are no severe storms with this batch of rain coming through! ;) All I look for with this system is some light to moderate rain with expected rainfall totals between a Tenth and a Quarter inch possible. And a few rumbles cannot be ruled out! So we also can look for slightly higher rainfall amounts in thunderstorms possible. Now I want to let you all know that again I see nothing severe. As CAPE values are really low along with Helicity, and EHI. But some scattered thunderstorms are still possible. And you all know I WILL have another update on the way.

On the other hand today will be another nice day with highs around 73* degrees and Partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies as you can see in the map below.....Good warm Garden weather it is and that is just what my Aunt will be doing!!!!! She has a wonderful garden every year and I know she will have another GREAT one this year! They will be out tilling today and I have nice weather for them to do so! I can't Wait to start showing pictures of all her vegetables when they start coming up! ;)

Have a wonderful day Bloggers! I will see you all soon.....
