Okay. My last report for rain was 15 inches. Then it filled and overflowed at 6 inches, bringing it to 21 inches. I emptied it and got another two inches making a grand total of 23 inches!

I thought I was going nuts (uh, well...), BUT then I spoke to my neighbor who has a pool in his birdcage. He told me he drained eight inches from his pool three times, which, I think, is 24 inches.

So I guess I may be nuts, but not THAT nuts.

My weather station (electronic) reported 9.68 for the whole storm.

You seem to be a very good person. Take no offence that I do not go to you for rain accumulation

No offence taken. But like I said, I felt somewhat vindicated when my neighbor had to drain 24" from his pool. I mean, it's really queer. Our neighborhood just always seems to get more rain than other areas. I would have put out a stainless steel pan to measure the rainfall, but it would have blown through the lanai slider!

I'm at Grovewood villas in Hadley. Are you nearby?
