On the periphery

I wrote a couple days ago about the severe weather outbreak in the middle of the country last week. It occurred just to the south of of our forecast site in Davenport. There wasn’t quite the same level of impact as Iowa as there was at points to the south, but there was certainly some impact. Thunderstorms started on Wednesday night and kept rolling through Thursday, bringing 2/3″ of rain throughout the two days of the forecast. It brought about a cool down as well, reminding all of us that, even though there were thunderstorms and 70s, it’s still only March. Victoria-Weather got the victory, edging ahead because of a splash of rain falling before midnight on Wednesday.
Actuals: Wednesday – .01″ of rain, High 71, Low 41
Thursday: .66″ of rain, High 55, Low 45

Grade: C-D
