[ARCHIVED] More Rain Thru Wednesday Evening

To all:

And…yet another conference call with the NWS regarding the upcoming rain. 

This one concerns tomorrow, Wednesday, 03 May.  Here’s the skinny:

  • Another active period of rain.
  • 1”-3” of rainfall, starting after midnight tonight (Tuesday) thru late Wednesday evening.
  • Expect additional rises along creeks and rivers, especially north and east of Springfield.
  • Lightning and wind will also be hazards.
  • We may see up to 2” of rain in Jasper County, more as you travel I-44 toward Saint Louis.
  • As usual, watch for low water crossings and find another way around to your destination.
