Our overflow is a 3/4" pipe and it's been running full stream for hours, another 4 inches of rain and we won't need the pipe.

Just under 8 inches in Richmond between yesterday and today.

My six inch rain gauge overflowed between 2pm Sunday and 2pm Monday. Quarter inch since then. Village of Tamarind Grove.

And watch how many people still let their sprinklers water their lawns!!!!

All Villages homes should have automatic rain sensors built into every home to stop watering grass when it rains. But as for The Villages streets and golf courses … they’ll water before and after the rain as they attempt to redistribute water around into non flood zones. Very Smart 🤙

[Jimmay]

4 1/2 we got 9 1/2 in pine hills

[rjn5656]

Neighbor on Eureka's rain garage spilled over at 7 inches. My gauge only goes to 5.

I’m in the northern end of TV and have emptied my rain gauge 3 times for a total of 13 inches!

My sprinklers have been off for about 2 months.

[rsmurano]

According to my PWS, we got over 6” over the 2 days

[jarodrig]

4.4 over two days @ Citrus Grove

What's with this obsession about rainfall? Been here for over 20 years (Village of Bonnybrook) and never had any flooding problem.

Decided to buy one, guess minimum 7 inches perhaps a bit more

No obsession here . We’re on our third home since 2005 and no flooding issues at any.

I just think folks like to compare the amount and then jibber jabber over the results ! :):):)

Ditto, pools gonna need a 40 lb bag of salt.

[jojo]

Just short of 8 inches in Amelia

The ponds are so full or just over their banks and it looks really pretty!

A number of residents are on vacation (some for a couple months) and their rain sensors probably no longer work. Those darn rain sensors are rather “finicky”.

[laryb]

We had 5' -1/4" in Buttonwood

Guilty as charged ! ;)

[Nana2Teddy]

We got almost 6” in DeLuna. We had several ponds that were very low for a long time, and a couple that were totally empty and dry, and now they’re all full. Even our large preserve by the postal station/pool looks more like a pond now than a preserve.

Times are changing. The whole Earth keeps getting warmer starting about 10 years ago. So the air is warmer which allows it to hold more moisture. More moisture, more rain.

The ponds may look pretty today, but as the summer continues, people may find catfish swimming in their living rooms.

I'm going to start shopping for a helmet, for when the sky falls. I wonder if tinfoil would be the best material for a good one?

I enjoy the jibber of you jabbers!

I called Community Watch and asked "how many accidents happened where gate arms were removed?"
Answer was ZERO

[justjim]

Could be not a lot of traffic, cars or carts, out and about.

Answer was ZERO

We were out and about with 4 appointments in SS, Fenney, LSL not be skipped Monday. I counted 11 cars 4 carts, and the ever brave sprinkler guys.

Not enough motorists to cause accidents. But one cart had issues with the winds staying on the cart path

[kcrazorbackfan]

I drained our pool down 12” on Sunday; Monday morning at 4:45, it was within 3” of the top in Bradford.
