Severe Wx / Flooding Rain Event Combo: April 2-6, 2025

Will once again watch the short term models battle it out today. The HRRR is winning the fight so far since Wednesday though the Nam has caught on to some portions of the long event. For the remainder of today the Nam is further north and west and the HRRR further south and east with the heavy rain. Hopefully the HRRR wins this battle once again

Temps across the Ohio Valley and Indy at 48 while southeast Kentucky over 80. Something has to give

Rain is thinning out over us as the low approaches. It should track over SE IN or close to us so let's see if we stay cloudy or can get any instability going. We wont need much since the triple point is close by. I like the marginal risk out for us as a CYA.

The steady rain is back for the night now. CVG's 6pm total is now 3.92"

CVG's 7pm total is now 4.01"

We have a new "lake" here at the Brethren Ret Community in Greenville that is behind an arboretum that was dedicated last year. The BRC swan ponds are high, too, of course and some of those birds have been swimming in that "lake". What an event!

Good morning! As of 7am this morning, CVG is checking in with an event total of 4.65" I sure could hear it pounding most of the night! Per radar, just some lighter rain today which may end as a flurry or ice pellet this evening. Too bad we will fall short of the 6" mark officially. I know some of you did get to that mark so all in all the forecast wasn't awful.

Good Morning Les and so far 5.12 at my house. Will not make the 6-8 at the airport but such a widespread rain and the atmosphere was no doubt loaded and one of the longest and area wide rain events that I can remember. Funny I was looking the NOAA forecast for flooding this spring and they mentioned no widespread flooding expected. Of course they were mainly talking about flooding from snow melt not heavy rains. Much cooler weather in store and a chance for some more rain late week. Does that system hang around for a few days or does it head to the east coast. There are signs though that the severe season is not over and late April and early May we could see another outbreak. Some years its just busy in the severe department while other years very little happens. No doubt drought conditions are not happening and can it come back and sure because if you become dry and hot in late spring or early summer but way too early to look at that happening. Some folks though to the south especially in the southern plains received some rain and they could use more but getting out of their rainy season
