Some days it doesn’t pay to get up. Took the rain gauge back to Lowes, no problem about refund, except they didn’t have one single rain gauge in that store - they were OUT. So, I’ve got the one that can fall over out there again. I’ll look on their website and see if I can order the type I got and have it sent to the store to avoid shipping. When I pick it up, I’ll check that tube right then at the bottom to make sure the new one doesn’t have a crack.

This is our latest forecast for Conroe sent from Houston:
Today, Overcast with a chance of rain, then a chance of a thunderstorm and a chance of rain in the afternoon. High of 88F. Breezy. Winds from the SSE at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 50%.

Monday Night
Overcast with a chance of a thunderstorm and a chance of rain in the evening, then partly cloudy with a chance of a thunderstorm and a chance of rain. Fog overnight. Low of 70F. Winds from the SE at 5 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 60% with rainfall amounts near 0.6 in. possible.

Tuesday
Overcast with thunderstorms and rain showers. High of 73F. Winds less than 5 mph. Chance of rain 60% with rainfall amounts near 0.9 in. possible.

Here comes the rain. Temp just dropped about 10F and the gust front hit. It's going to be an exciting afternoon. Ham radio is set up for the weather net, so I'll know when to duck. ;)

30 tornadoes and 133 hailstorms with 13 being serious yesterday. It’s that time of the year now.

On these hail size reports, 100=1” 200=2” etc.
