Three Inches of Rain

Like most parts of the U.S. the storms seem to come every week. In Kansas City we are on a record setting pace for tornadoes. Last night the forecast called for 3 inches of rain, fortunately we only received 1 1/2 inches.

Soon after I took these pictures the wind increased so much that the trees in our back yard looked as if they we're going to snap in two. Fortunately they did not.
