We only got 3" last night according to our rain gauge. Nothing like the 10+ inches we got when the hurricane rolled through last year. Even then, there were only a couple of streets and a handful of golf cart tunnels in all of The Villages that were flooded. They did do an amazing job planning this place, indeed.

I have heard some folks complain that the water retention ponds and golf course ponds and lakes have looked a bit nasty as they drew them down for hurricanes that never came this year. Well, last night's rains had some place to go thanks to that foresight!
