The featured map is of rainfall estimates yesterday by the National Mosaic and QPE (NMQ) project for the Waterloo area. Slow moving and efficient rainfall producing storms were able to quickly dump up to 8 inches of rain over portions of southeast Waterloo. The Waterloo Airport (on the other end of town and only about 8 miles away) only reported just over an inch. This sort of extreme small spatial scale variability is common with slow moving storms.
