Stormy weather

A big storm rolled in here yesterday evening and lasted
through the night. We got 2.3" of rain. :shock: Lost the internet and
when I called the server their rep said there were lots of problems
around the eastern half of Montana. He said a tornado touched
down right outside Lewistown. :shock: I hope there was no damage.
We did get some hail with this storm, but not big stuff, so although
I'm sure it didn't do any good, I don't think it did much harm.
I hope not, anyway.

There was a tornado warning out for Wibaux county, but I haven't
heard that anything came of that. It is not real common to
get tornados in Montana, but we do get some.

Heard from a friend who lives there that she was trapped in her car for 15 minutes due to the hail.
Reports say it touched down near the fairgrounds and there was some damage. trees knocked down and some damage to some houses.

Second tornado to hit Lewistown in like 8 years.

we got about .6 of rain between Tues night and last night. 50% chance of some more today and 100% chance of 40+ mph wind. :mad:

i heard the Dupree area got hammered. between 7-8 inches of rain, along with large hail and a couple tornados. that much water can be as bad as a drought. i haven't heard of any damage, but we know there has to be some. :(

Absarokee and some areas near there got hammered with golf ball size hail.. We got some heavy rain for a short time- a little wind- and thunder and lightning- and picked up .4 on the river-- .6 at the north place....It sounds like everyone west of us got over 1.5-- and some got 2-3 inchs...

Creeks are over the roads- and more rain predicted today and tomorrow..

Kind of wish it would hold off for a little bit- so the yard could dry out for Saturdays wedding..Forecast is for a nice day- but would be nice if the yard dried out a little as all the relatives are starting to show up..

Just keep it fh... We are getting our quarter of alfalfa up... Pretty crappy stuff, but will beat a snowdrift.... We had a choice of letting the worms eat it up or let it get rained on for 10 days......... I'm still not sure whats right?? :???:

Could be worse......




There was snow reported in Cut Bank this morning.
Talked to a gentleman in Wyoming and he said they got 5" of rain in the last 24 hours. Everything is full and some places have it going over the spill way.

Wind is howling here and the rain coming down in sheets.
