March Madness

This past week brought drenching rains and accumulating snows. Temperatures swung up and down as one would expect for late March. March is currently 162% of average for precipitation and 118% of average for snowfall. An exciting week is in store once again for the upper Midwest. Looking forward to it.

The 48 hours ending Mar 25 brought some decent rains. A two day total of 1.82". The rain fell quick and with the ground not completely thawed, some minor flooding occurred. The water crept into our basement, but nothing unusual after a heavy rain like this.
