I think there was a 90% chance of rain in the forecast today.
Confirmed
Heading to my brothers family around 5 in a 45MPH. Straddled my vehicle over what I thought was a pot hole. Realized it was a black snake. Turned around facing the opposite traffic. Hazard lights on. Carried him into nearby tall grass. Black snakes are awesome! Although he took a few swipes at me before I finally grasped him. Lol (approximately 6ft)

Though soon after this was severe warned for potential 60 mph wind gusts and 1” hail, I fortunately never saw anything close to that unlike the winds from the 4 hour long power outage causing prior severe warned storm of 10 days prior (5/9). Also the CTG lightning wasn’t bad. But the rain was very heavy for ~30 minutes producing the typical localized street flooding. Rain fell for ~2 hours total due to followup convection. I received a total of ~1.25” of beneficial rain yesterday.
Dew points on day 8. The farther we get into the warm season, the less likely to see refreshing air like below.
6z GFS:
This run actually has another cool down in early June. But the days are numbered until we go into the endless steam bath.

headed back from Sevierville on Sunday afternoon. They don’t call them the smokies for nothing 
Buc ees FTW!
The turnaround on the drought here has been amazing! The last two summers have been plagued with drought! Now the big 4 cities in Iowa are +2 to +6” for the month and the year!
We might actually get the rare for these days mountains to coast storm complex Thursday if it doesn't choke itself out with outflow
6z GFS ~day 13. Looks like a great time for a Disney Worl vacation.
Remember a couple of years back the GFS kept spitting out maps like this. At that time, it was centered over South Carolina. Maybe it's right this time, or it's back to its old games.

HRRR shows little rain over the next 2 days.
Latest 3k NAM has this (12z at hr 46 totals - early Saturday morning):
Looks like typical thunderstorm totals, where if you get under one you can do well.
