1/4 an inch in my part of Edmond.

Tree bitlets and rose petals all over my driveway and front garden. No real damage to any of my plants....then again, we've got another round this afternoon.

Yay for the rain! Rain is always good but it is even better when it is not accompanied by significant hail.

Things could be bad in parts of OK today. I hope that all we get is rain, but realistically speaking, hail, severe wind and tornadoes seem likely to hit somebody's gardens. It would be nice in spring to just have nice rainy days without the severe weather but that just doesn't happen often in May or June. Let's hope for the best for today.

I'm going to link the map with the 24-hour rainfall totals. Some parts of SW OK got some really good rainfall amounts, but some areas had baseball or larger sized hail along with the rain.

Here is a link that might be useful: Mesonet Map--24 hour rainfall

According to mesonet, we got about .25 inches (though there is no monitoring station here). A straight-sided bucket sitting on the ground had an inch in it, but I'm not sure if a bucket is an accurate gauge--I guess I should buy a real rain gauge one of these days.

Julie, My rainfall varies a lot from our Mesonet station. Sometimes we get more, sometimes we get less, but in the years when I wrote down every bit of rain at our house and compared the year's total to our mesonet station's total, the two were surprisingly close so I guess it all evened out over time.

We have several rain gauges and I am surprised how much the rainfall can vary even within 50-100'.
