Quieter Weather Today...

We are waking up to cloudy and foggy conditions this morning, with light rain still falling outside as I type this. It is much warmer than it was yesterday and last night thanks to the warm front that moved through the area. The winds were the strongest just before midnight, when I recorded my gust of 28mph. A heavy line of rain moved in around 1:30am, and this lasted about a hour. The winds backed off dramatically when the heavy rain moved in. My max gust after midnight was 20mph.

Overall, it was a very wet and windy storm system, and was very similiar to what Hurricane Katrina's conditions when it blew through this area last year.

My storm total rainfall stands at 1.92" now. 0.99" of that yesterday and 0.93" today (still raining).

I'm hoping we see some sunshine later this afternoon so I can get out and clean up the yard which is full of sticks, small branches, and tons of leaves.
