Anyone have any reports about how much rain yesterday and today on the east side of the BWCA? The forecast was for up to 4". Thanks.

Tomster

Check THIS out. If I'm not mistaken, the data comes from estimates from radar. Gives you an idea. Looks like a lot of the area got 1.5 to 2".

Living near Green Bay we often see the weather over Ely area....they have been getting it. Fire danger low I would say..
