Sitting at 2.18” for today nearing 5” for the month. Over performed Tuesday! One can only hope we can catch some slack on Wed. Or the 6”-11” totals once modeled that seemed to dissipate may very well have been on the money!! Stay safe everyone, turn around don’t drown!
On a side note there is a very low end probability of a chance for a tornado or two with this event. Primarily Wednesday and another very slight chance on Sat. Nothing spectacular, but worth a mention as rainfall totals have been the headliner.

What a strange day, I had a red cell go right over my house. I started out with snow and ice that went quickly over to major thunder storms while the temps hovered around 38 degrees.

Storming pretty good here in ATL. Two days in a row with thunderstorms in February.
Just creepy outside. Sleet yesterday, then massive thunder and lightning off and on, and now its thundering so loud the entire house is shaking. Still holding at 42F.

Same here. Already had two power surges as well. Quite intense.

Has the front stalled? This training is relentless.
This is easily the 2nd loudest t'storm I've heard since moving down here.
Steep mid-level lapse rates are doing wonders.

Kind of crazy to even think that's the benchmark, lol.

It’s been raining for about 12 hours straight now!
Yet again, another tight gradient across Metro Atlanta.
Folks in McDonough and Covington are like "what thunderstorms and flooding?" lol.

Can’t even get storms this good in the summer!
Huge rain band just plowed through, thunder on the front end. Some streets beginning to flood

So my rain gauge overflowed overnight because I forgot to empty it (it was at around 3.75" when I last saw it) so I'm guessing I'm now at about 6" per that. Starting fresh with an empty gauge that should finish up the event. The models were right before hand about all this rain,

Third day in a row getting a thunder storm here! Temps are at least 61 this time, so feels better.
