Rainfall updates.
 
Any new rainfall updates from the year rounders? We use to have a gentleman post occasionally on TOTV. Any news on how he is doing?
We are getting some much needed rain today in Wisconsin. I am missing my home in the villages counting the days until I can return.

Had 1 1/2" of rain yesterday pm at our house in Hadley. Also had a heavy shower around 1pm today followed by on and off sprinkles since then but have not checked the rain gage yet.

thank you.

Thanks for the information. Should save some $$$$ on the water bill which seems high to me every month.

In keeping with the request by the original poster:

Had just under 1" of rain over three days the end of July at our house in Hadley. Decent t-storm came through late yesterday, 8/6, that gave us heavy rain for maybe a couple of hours and then changed to a light drizzle for a couple of more hours. End result was close to 1 1/2" of rain. That with the watering restrictions being lifted should be a big help to the golf courses.

:) Thanks for the update. Yards should be doing okay regarding the water. Sure hope the water sensor is working okay. :mademyday:

Thank you for the information. I hope our sensor is also working also.

Wesh TV said we had 0.16 in of rain yesterdayin their 5 oclock news.

THEN the rain came at 1" /hr and stayed for 3 hours and it never crossed into Marion County (how does the Villages do that?). 3" of rain !

Everything is green and lush today!
