We didn't get hail, but did get steady rain most of the day. 1.5 inches up
here in Blaine, MN (North metro). Big drops. We had many "thunder boomers,"
along with some of the longest "thunder growlers" I have ever heard. Not many
lightning bolts.

Local weather today. Finally ...rain!!
The BWCA, up on the Canadian border, still needs rain. Fires. 25,000 acres
and growing.
"The fire is in the "blowdown area" in and around the BWCAW, where a fierce
windstorm July 4, 1999, knocked down millions of trees over 600 square
miles."

He's about 2 miles from here, in Coon Rapids. Lucky for me I live in a
Townhouse Association that mows the grass for us. <g>
