So, who all had vehicles damaged by the hail this morning? Our van got wounded for sure. :-(

Both of ours

were were your vehicles located in the city?

Yes, south end of the city for me.

We were lucky at our place. A lot of dimes fell with a few nickels and loonies mixed in for good measure. Here’s hoping round 2 (if we get) goes a little easier on us, tho they’re saying 100% chance of rain right through to the 10pm hour right now...

Well I hope round two is less "solid" than round one!

South end

All our vehicles at our place had haik damage....

Anyone have rainfall totals?  
Or the website to get them?

South east for us...I didn’t see any noticeable damage but guess I better look closer tomorrow....it’s brand new so I hope not!!! Lol

In total for today was just over 2 inches

Yeah, we got at least 2-2.5 inches for sure too. We got 38mm in this morning's initial storm alone. Last I checked there was an additional 20 or so mm in the rain gauge.

Env Canada officially saying 48.3mm for Brandon Friday.  
 
Already eBrandon weather gauges showing 6 and 11mm so far today and it looks like that number’s going up up up. Weather statement says it’s possible for 3 day totals in some parts of MB to hit 175-200mm (!!!) depending on where embedded storms in the rain today hit

I got some drastic numbers  
My location is near 6th and Park  
Friday at 00:00 - 0mm  
Friday at 12:00 - 42mm  
Saturday at 00:00 - 58mm  
Saturday at 12:00 - 28mm  
So far that’s 128mm  
And forecast is another 30-40mm tonight and tomorrow

I finally wandered out and checked my gauge today. Since 6 a.m. Friday we've had about 125 mm. I'm in Riverheights.  
 
Surprisingly, our sump pump isn't running yet (yes, we checked, the pit isn't full). But with the trees letting go of their water for the fall, the water table will jump up dramatically over the next few days.

Did a great job trying to keep up with the roads that were flooded or problems with manholes coming off.

certainly had their work cut out for them over the last few days. It was good to see Adam's photo of the sanitation worker clearing a water main drain.

We actually noticed Counsellor Shaun Cameron out cleaning debris from drains when we were out this afternoon. Kudos to him and all the other good citizens that took the time to clear drains where they were able.

I believe this in your rain gauges as I watch my rain gauge very closely and other people in the city were saying that they had an inch more than my gauge registered . My gauge is usually pretty close in comparison but an inch off this time. We are in the south end

Yeah, I think it just depends on where you are. We weren't home during the last bit of heavy rain in the late afternoon yesterday, so I surprised at how much my rain gauge collected when I did the last check. It didn't seem that heavy in the core where we were for the afternoon.  
 
My overall total is 148mm, just shy of 6". That's in Riverheights.

Shade over 5 in the south end
