That was the worse storm I've seen since there was one in August 2011 right after we moved here. It was a Friday night and I was watching a preseason football game and Directv went out. I couldn't get anything even with backup channels, I put on weather website and a yellow/red cell was right over TV and stayed there and wasn't moving. We had 5" of rain in 2 hours.

The next morning I was going to play Sand Hill Exec for the first time. When we got there, the only things visible was the tees and greens and everything else was water. I asked my neighbor, is any of this real water holes. They let us tee off, but when we finished they said you're the last ones. They closed the course until Tuesday.
