Power out

[Jane]

How long as the power been out in Howard and when do they expect it back on.
Thanks Jane

[Wilma]

The power was out about five hours.  It came back on shortly before 3:00 this afternoon.  Sure don't know how much we depend on it until it is gone.

Wilma, how rain has Howard had?

[Wilma]

I have had a total of about 4 inches here on the west side, partially under trees.  My gauges are set where they are convenient for me, not where they will be the most efficient.  Most of the rain has been  light but consistent.  During the storm Thursday morning, about and inch and a half fell in less than twenty minutes.  The ditch in front of my house was running over within half an hour of the rainfall.

[Jane]

Thanks, we have had almost 6 inches here and radar show more to come.
