After spending countless hours watering the trees in the yard F-sun. Sunday evening, after I left, we received 1.5" of rain. Wasn't in the forecast either. We've lost around 1/2 dozen mature oak trees and dozen more pine trees. Plus a Magnolia that I planted for my mom.
Anyone else get rain from this storm?

Yes, got a storm that formed out the blue late Sunday that dropped 1/2" of rain on us. Not a widespread event....but happy it happened in my area.
It had been 107°F here that afternoon, would never have expected it.
Spartans ask not...how many, but where!

None for us. Haven't seen rain in over 6 weeks or more. Everything dying. No rain in the foreseeable future, either. Been here 11 years. Never have I seen it this bad.

Got 3.2", but only after the small twister ripped 1/3 of a barn roof off. ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53151413265_8a1b2a503f_z.jpg)

We got 8 tenths out of that same cloud. I was so happy to see it raining I grabbed a lawn chair and a Miller High Life and sat out in the yard and drank a beer and enjoyed just sitting in the rain.

Not many things frighten me, but lighting terrifies me.

We passed through some nice rain yesterday afternoon north of Denver and into the Cheyenne area. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/08/full-9738-398850-img_2227.jpeg)
