Nothing here, car and yard were dry at 6:00 AM, but driving a mile or two, there were some slightly damp roads. Could have been light rain... or condensation from the higher humidity today? Out for a walk around 7:30, everything was dry in the woods. However, it's still somewhat moist from the 1/4 inch of rain we had a few days ago and the leaves aren't all dry and crispy like they were before.

Some heavy rain woke me up last night. I grabbed this screenshot and dozed back off. That long skinny front was almost 100 miles long! It was moving really fast and passed over me in only about 10 minutes. Didn't hear anything else overnight, but it was raining lightly at 6:00 AM.

I saw the same line at about the same time you did Boyd. I was moving to my bedroom and checked the radar map on my phone. I was asleep before it passed my pad.

Some of the brightest lightning I've ever seen last night. Unfortunately the rain ended too quickly, but it was great to see it coming down hard for a little while.

Same here. There was a line of storms to the West and another to the East, with nothing in the whole middle of the state much of the morning. Was even able to get out for a walk around noon. They're still forecasting another 1 to 1.5 inches before it ends however.
