Pasayten's Methow Valley Bulletin Board

Hopefully any wildfire starts got doused pretty well, we'll see what the observers report this morning, but so far there's mud over Hwy 20 west of Mazama and one start up near Ramsey Mtn.

Dang - Jealous!

Nothing in Twisp where I was earlier, or 2 miles south.

Dark clouds and some distant thunder was all we got.
.

We had hard driving larger than pea size hail. Luckily I have shade cloth on the lettuces, cabbages and quickly covered the carrot starts and zuchs.
Lasted about 10 minutes but long enough. Beet leaves got some holes, potatoes, some blossoms pummeled but we got off easy as far as I am concerned.
Originally from Kansas and I've seen corn fields reduced to shreds and the wheat laid down. Nasty.

Don't have equipment to measure but would say probably got the same or close to in town and the drops were huge

We just had a thunder cell park over our house 3 miles north of Winthrop on the East Chewuch...

Max rate was 5.54 inch/hr!!!!

1.07 inches and cloud has moved... Sun is out.

Standing water everywhere.
