It's RAIN, glorious RAIN!!

My 6 week old kittens got up and ran to the window when it started to pour!! You gotta figure, even though they were feral at birth - they probably never experienced rain before!!

HALLELUJAH, IT'S RAINING!!!!!!! IT'S A MIRACLE!!!!!

Yeh yeh yeah it rained here too! It will all be gone by tomorrow.

It's raining here now!

Also, I got a nice downpour on the 4th of July. Nothing excessive, but enough to keep me from having to water the lawn.

Once again, I got a rock...

Better luck today. For whatever it's worth it only rained for about 5 minutes here.

It's raining across Tarrant Co as I type, very heavy with 50mph gust and lots of lightning...

I was in the shower this morning when I heard a noise. My best friend usually comes by in the morning (parks her car at my house since I'm so close to UTMB) and has a cup of coffee. So, when I heard the noise, I thought it was her. Called out to make sure and got no answer. Then a few seconds later, I heard it again. Realized it was *gasp!* thunder! So, then I had to hurry to get out of the shower since it was storming.

It poured for about a half hour and then died down just in time for me to leave for work and not get drenched.

still raining here, received about 2 inches here a work in down town Ft Worth Tx

Last night there was thunder and rain all around my house, but none fell. Crap, I tell ya.

Yeah, just call it the Clear Lake extension of the Bear Creek dome!

I'm jealous, extremely jealous. I wonder if the CC radar would even know what rain was if it detected it?

With this drought, I have a bad feeling about Corpus. I think a significant Tropical system will directly affect you all this summer. A higher threat than the upper TX coast.

I actually went throug hail and 40 mph winds with downpour on the way home last night. Had 0.30" of rain at the house. WOOHOO!!!

You and me both. We'll either end this drought/heat wave with a storm or we will have a cold and damp winter with numerous low temps broken. I prefer the cooler option. The drought will not end just through a normal transition.

'shana

Wind, pouring rain, blackness, blackness, blackness!! And as I look at the radar, there's more out there...

So far this week, I got a nice shower on the 4th of July, a *little* rain Tuesday night, storms overnight both Wednesday and Thursday and strong enough storms today to knock out my power!!! I was jumping up and down with glee! My yard is very grateful.
