That seems very high since we only got about 2 inches with Hurricane Ian.


Does anyone have a rain gauge? If so, what is the general area where you live (I have read that rain fall can vary greatly within a few miles) and how much rain did you get? I am interested to see what the variation is in the Villages.

Thanks.
In Orange Blossom a 1/4 inch or so. More wind than rain. Now the rain we got the other day, Tuesday afternoon I think. We received about 1 1/2 inches. According to the rain gauges I have, one in front and one in back.
