Already approaching 3” in West Belleville 2.9" sound good? Looking to fill in my map with numbers. So anyone with new totals please report! |

That south to north moving squall line is pretty intense. Was on the edge of it in Perryville and even still had some gusty winds. And sheets of rain like I haven't seen in a long time.

Toss the GFS... man. That's as far off as I've ever seen a model DURING an event.

Lots of vehicles getting stranded in st. Clair county. Very close to areas over 3 inches on radar.
What's crazy is in West Belleville we probably had an inch or more before 6. I was in millstadt where it hadn't even rained yet, 6 miles away. The phone sirens went off in millstadt and everybody thought it was a joke. Areal coverage of the warnings was terrible tonight, but well needed where it actually had been raining.

Well the name has been pretty close far. What’s the stock we put in the nam 3k then? If we already have the large area at 3inches seems like we will have more of the 5-7 then 3-5

Maybe in one of it's 10 iterations over that time. But it has been all over the map since then...until it suddenly found its way...  |

I think it's possible to argue that it had a decent handle on the general location of the frontal precip and the track of Gordon's heaviest axis of rain. Thursday 06-18z somewhat consistent on the those placements. 06z Wed didn't perform all too poorly either. And I'd give today's afternoon runs a decent score. Obviously the 7 to 9 inches of qpf it printed out were juiced- but just eyeing storm totals so far at least half of those runs weren't too far off. |

Wow! So far a grand total of 6......tenths! Looks like a forecast bust for my neck of the wood. Again not complaining, crops are coming out and the farmers don't need that kind of rain right now.

My concern would be Meramec... if Crawford county did get 4+ that has to run down stream plus local totals... I don’t think it gets record breaking like it has in recent years but it will have to have a serious jump. Thoughts?

It's been a wet summer over here in the eastern CWA (over 16" of rain since June 1st)...we seemed to cash in on every isolated thundershower and complex that developed. This event is rapidly adding to it now with not much activity till the last 4 hours. Approaching 2.5" for the event and much more to come.

Doppler estimates show a good area of 3-6. Pretty impressive. Glad it is moving out.

PSA for the day: Window screens can become dams. Downspouts that pop up out in the yard are fine, as long as you remember to cut the roots and grass out of them a couple times a year, unlike this poster, so that the water can actually get somewhere.
Side Note: It's no wonder my sump pump runs all year long. I took a (soaking wet) trip around the house. We have really, really poor drainage. |
