How much rain did you get?
Here in Poinciana slightly over 4 inches.
|
That is a lot of water!

My Tempest gauge in Marsh Bend showed 2.94” yesterday up to midnight and another 1.25” so far today (8:30am). 4.19”!

No gauge but we sure got a lot and needed it all
|
Both rain gauges read 3.625" here in Buttonwood. Was awoken by a huge clap in the middle of the night that sounded like it touched down near the house, or in the neighborhood. Everything looked OK, but weather station screen changed. Not sure if it caused a momentary blip in the electrical service. Anyone else hear it?
|
My weather station in DeSoto registered 6.65 inches for the event.

After a long dry spell, that amount of rain in such a short time, is not that good for baked dry soil. More runs off, than sinks in.
May be different with Florida's sandy soil, but heavier soils need a steady drizzle for a good many hours to get deep. Good for golf course retention ponds though! |
