I woke up to several BIG limbs on the ground this morning.  They were dead, so the added weight of the water and a bit of wind gusts, did the rest.  Now to get them on the burn pile with no burn ban in effect for the present time.  I'm up to 4" of rain and still counting.  

Had one circuit of my yard lights blow a fuse.  Guess I've got some electrical troubleshooting to do to clean up very old underground splices and such. 

No roof leaks or anything else major.  At least we didn't have any wind over a gust of 15 overnight.  No antenna or radio problems, but I do have one UPS that needs a new battery. 

So far, so good.

Glad you dodged the twister. XYL and I drove home from Fayetteville yesterday.  Really heavy rain all the way down I49 then east on I40. Ran out of it at Ozark.  NWS site shows 10-12 inches cumulative in last 24 hours for parts of north central AR. One way to end a burn ban!

Hope everyone in the group was spared damage from last nights storms.

 

My wife and I were headed into Hobby Lobby in Rogers just as a tornado warning was issued for Benton county. We headed home all the way across town at “rush hour.” It was a wild ride.

 

One flash flood warning expanded over 270 miles through OK and North AR.

Some limited tornado damage west and north of us.

 

I saw Bull Shoals Lake (massive lake in north central AR on the White River) had risen over 5 feet in a 24 hour period. Clearwater Lake (small lake in MO on the upper Black River) rose 22 feet.

 

Busy day yesterday, so no DX for me, but did pick up VK9CV Sunday in a VERY short propagation opening for an ATNO. Have had some great DX over the past two weeks.

 

Good DX, everyone!

 

73,
