While the chances of rain today supposedly were somewhat less than yesterday, we did have a fairly short lived but very energetic storm come through around 1700. I went out on the back porch to place a bucket under a small leak, and just after doing so the rain and wind increased to terrifying proportions. I have never seem rain come blowing through the porch screen before at that level of intensity. It was a fire hose treatment that left me soaked. I the realized I should have thrown the security bolt for the porch screen door but it was too late for that. I did throw the bolt for the front screen door. I even wondered if a tornado was passing by. In any case, while that level of storm only lasted maybe 15 min before reducing to a light rain we got about 1 inch. Light rain continued off and on for the rest of the evening. But it did cool things down from the afternoon peak of about 90F quite well. Rain chances are significantly higher tomorrow.
