Looks like we're under siege here in S. IL. Edwardsville (just outside
of St. Louis) got about 3-1/2 in of rain in about an hr. We've had
funnels hovering overhead a few times today,a nd loads of intense rain
andgray/green skys , but no hail... yet. Looks like it's headed
northeast towards Indianapolis and over to Ohio great lakes.
Lights have been hit and miss here for the last hr.
Ah yes - weather as I remember it growing up in Wisconsin. *Nothing
like a Mid-Western storm front - weather old skool. *:)

Glad you are ok and everyone is in one piece.

Man I'm glad I'm not out in the middle of Carlyle Lake right now.
"UGH"

Been there in that kind of weather Tom. I harpooned my small Chris
into about a 4 foot wall of water *and thought it was going to
submarine on us. but fortunately the bow popped right back up but only
threw about 500 gal. (seemingly) of water over the wind shield soaking
everything.

it was exilerating, but I dont' want to do it again.

Sounds like the first time I went to watch the fireworks display in an
18' bowrider.

Do you have any idea how large the wakes are when a few 1000 50' boats
are "plowing" (almost, but not quiet on plane) through the water?- Hide quoted text -

Yes, I've been there with a bass boat!
