Well, for you folks who garner interest in the weather around Little Rock Lake (LRL) here is some info on what turned out to be just a lot of rain.

About 7:30 AM the sky was dark and lightning was signaling bad weather.  Sky warn called, but I was on the way out the door. 

The rain really came down from about 8:00 AM until about 11:00 AM then let up to a steady rain.  LOTS of big lightning and thunder.  Julie our cat hid in the closet.  By the time it was over, just past noon, we received 1.65" of rain.  No hail or high wind.  So far this month we have received 3.2" of rain. 

Now, at 4:00 PM the temp is rising and the humidity is way up.  Maybe more rain tonight or early tomorrow???

That's the report from the LRL weather reporter/recorder.
