Rain!!!

Dallas, TX

Last night (6/27) I got at least a half inch of rain. I say 'at least' because when I went to check the rain gauge it wasn't exactly vertical. Then today we had a sudden downpour and with rain gauge vertical I can safely say we got another half inch. Don't know what the official stats were, but I'm happy.
Did anyone else get rain? Hope so and hope it made everyone's gardens happy.

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

We picked up about 2" last night and another 1/4" this evening. Last night, we had a cell stop right over our house and not move for about an hour. It was the craziest thing! I could go for a little rain every few days.

Liberty Hill, TX(Zone 8a)

It started raining here about 2:30. It poured for a little while but has been sprinkling ever since. Very unexpected. Wow Stephanie you got a ton of rain!

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

The event that brought us the 2" of rain was totally bizarre. It was one of those pop-up showers and it just hung out over our house and the cell kept growing! It was really crazy with lots of thunder and lightning.

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

Well, we picked up another 1.25" of rain overnight and early this morning. Lots of thunder and lightning. Didn't help me sleep well at all. :(

Fort Worth, TX

not sure what I got but it came in horizontally from the west, and the dogs were frantic between fireworks and thunderstorms. About to go out to check

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

We also had fireworks followed by thunderstorms last night. Lots of thunder and lightning and it was LOUD!! Sooooo much lightning, too. Picked up another 1" of rain last night. I"ll take it since we're normally dry, dry, dry this time of year.

I seem to have gotten 1 inch Sunday night and 2 inches last night, on the official bucket guage, but some buckets that got more wind got more rain. My rotti is beginning to recover from the noise

Dallas, TX

I got about 3 drops last night. Very disappointed.

Fort Worth, TX

I got 10 drops. Also disappointed. watered this morning

Liberty Hill, TX(Zone 8a)

It rained all around us but not on us. The radar looked like a donut and we were the hole in the middle. Lol

Fort Worth, TX

maybe 1/8th of an inch. I don't think it was that much, but I did get enough to make me rush the chicken feed out of the back of my truck and under a roof

Liberty Hill, TX(Zone 8a)

Having feed in the back of your truck is a rain magnate. Lol

Fort Worth, TX

True

Arlington, TX

None here.

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

We got about 1/8" both yesterday and today. Very thankful, but I would love more.

Fort Worth, TX

I think I got 1/4 inch today but didn't have gauge out

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

We didn't get any at all, oh well.

Fort Worth, TX

well whatever I got has long since gone, yard is like concrete, flowerbeds being watered

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

The same here, watering all potted plants and different areas of the yard everyday.
It's the story of my life lately.

Liberty Hill, TX(Zone 8a)

The weeds in my pastures are wilting.....

Fort Worth, TX

If I start watering by 7 I finish by 8:30

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

I love these cooler temps and the chance of rain daily. We picked up 1/2' on Friday night.

Liberty Hill, TX(Zone 8a)

Same here the temps are great! We got a brief downpour yesterday. There is a good chance of rain all week.

Fort Worth, TX

I got an 8th of an inch maybe Friday, but the cooler temps are nice

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

Yes, we worked in the light rain today at the Fielder House garden and it was great.!!

Fort Worth, TX

It is nice out now, just got home from service calls, hope to go out. Got a bit over an inch last night

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

Woke up to 1/4" in the rain gauge. Loving the gentle rain and cooler temps.

Rowlett, TX(Zone 8a)

I am loving this weather in Rowlett. I swear I can see the grass growing before my very eyes.

Fort Worth, TX

It is beautiful out, so nice and damp and green

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

I am loving these unseasonably cooler temps!! We picked up another 1/4" of rain.

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

Yep, it is unbelievable !!!

Liberty Hill, TX(Zone 8a)

I can't believe these temps. We are getting some gentle rain but a lot of showers too. So strange for this time of year.

Fort Worth, TX

Strange and wonderful. The east coast got our heat. Which is fine with me.

Dripping Springs, TX(Zone 8b)

9" in the last 4 days.......a godsend

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

9"!!!!??? Wow! That's a lot of rain1 I hope it doesn't cause too much flooding.

We've picked up another 1/2". It's been very spotty and hit and miss with the accumulating kind of rain.

Fort Worth, TX

definitely spotty. I drove through downpours on my way home on Thursday and hit Sycamore School Rd and no rain south of it. Thought my dogs were out in the rain, nope they were dry. (and happier) I think I got another half inch later on Friday and Friday night, Saturday

Frisco, TX(Zone 8a)

Last week from Saturday through Friday we got about 4 inches. Last night through this afternoon got another 3 inches. Fortunately no damage or flooding in my immediate area.

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

Our total for all this rain is just under 2". I hope we get more!

Fort Worth, TX

I am guessing mine was about 2 and a quarter, which is nice but more would be ok
