Looks like the more northern area of cells are starting to weaken whilst the ones a little to the south are starting to beocme more potent. The northern batch should help to slightly push up water levels in Lake O.

Given this current pattern could we end up with a above average rainfall in June or were we too far behind at the start of the month?

Ouch golfball sized hail, nasty!

I suspect after todays set of cells has come through we will see another little rise. Really the only way to get a large rise though would be through a tropical system.

Noting the rain in the keys. Today should be the first of a string of west coast days.

Looks like that region of cells has formed pretty close to where yesterdays set formed first of all so same areas likely to see some good rains today as well.

We had some pea size hail where I am at in south Jacksonville today, the little cell formed right over my place. Funny thing is we had less than a 20% chance and this ended up being one of the more intense storms of the season for me.

BIG TIME storm just to my east right now. Incredible CG lightning going on and the clouds are crazy. There have also been a few times when a sudden burst of 40mph+ wind was pushed out of the storm into my area causing a little bit of light damage (pots blown over, small debris flying around, etc). Conditions have got to be much worse a few miles east of here though. Supposedly there have been reports of severe hail and possible micro-burst winds over along the University Blvd. region.
