3/14 - 7:45pm - The Sound of Thunder...

I heard some real live thunder today! It was nice to return to the stormy spring pattern I've been longing for ever since it stopped snowing. We got .22" of rain, while most of Louisville passed an inch. This was because a heavy thunderstorm clipped the north part of Jefferson County and missed everything south of St. Matthews.

There is one more cell that has a Severe Thunderstorm Warning tailing it that is making its way NE to the Spencer County, Jeff County line. Anyone near this area is entitled to penny size hail and heavy bout of rain.

WHOOPS!! Just got a look at the radar in the middle of posting here and this storm HAS A ROTATION SIGNATURE!!! This does not mean there is a tornado, but it does mean stay in your house. This is a VERY small storm so it will only affect a tiny area. I can't tell if there is hooking, but its looking like it a little bit. If you live anywhere in S. Jeff County or N. Spencer County, you need to monitor this system.

So anyway, if this thing gets a hook echo (hook echo=funnel cloud ~ tornado), then I will post again and really look at the path of this baby...
