However, we could just as easily get as little as 1 mm if everything misses us again. Tough call for rainfall amounts.. just keep in mind that high amounts are possible. That storm west of Portage is interesting. Hopefully it manages to keep its steam as it gets here. Again, high rainfall amounts will be the main concern for us, but hail and damaging winds would be possible if it keeps up its strength. A line of storms may also develop and perhaps a squall line of some sort. Will be interesting to see how things evolve tonight!jjcwpghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03353008394397372445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071575595521727141.post-28289011313324525072014-08-17T19:02:56.432-05:002014-08-17T19:02:56.432-05:00Again, I apologize if comments are not posted imme...Again, I apologize if comments are not posted immediately.
