Even with the steady rains, there are still some areas, especially in coastal counties, where rainfall totals are below normal. Everyone picked up at least a half inch of rain, but the eastern half of the state is still below normal. We're about average. May. Mercer County has about 3.8 inches of rain, and Somerset County has 4.1 for the month. Everything greened right up.
Farmers have to be thrilled, while employees of lawn and garden shops have to be deliriously happy.
Mr. Robinson said the tornado's track was about 1 miles long. The storm lifted roofs off of houses, knocked down several hundred trees, and may have given Princeton half-inch sized hail, although that was never confirmed. There were reports of 1 -inch sized hail in West Windsor, but that too was never confirmed. They are wrapped in rain. In the midwest you can see a tornado coming, but in this area tornado warnings usually go up after the storm has passed.
