Brutally cold outdoors with a strong NW wind, skies are clearing with sun starting to peak through. New snow measurement taken from measurements around the yard since snowboard only had a .1 on it because the wind almost blew it clean. So guesstimating a new .5 inches of new snow. A thin, less than .1 inch of frozen precip on NW side of gauge. Very treacherous to walk on sidewalk and driveway with ice covering everything. Snow cover crunches underfoot with ice coating.

A severe thunderstorm raced through our farm yesterday with straight line winds flattening two burr oaks trees, and other limb damage on smaller trees. Limb and leaf debris everywhere! Also have many tree tops snapped off laying in corn field across from our house. Lost a garage window. White rain came so hard and sideways that really don't know if the gauge collected the correct total. In 20 minutes we received 1.27 inches. Hail fell around 3:25 p.m. for about 1 minute. Lost power soon after storm for about 1 hr. This morning we have partly sunny skies; nice SW breeze; 76 deg F. And a lot of work ahead of us! |
