I'm going to ask Santa for a large rain gauge! Would be a bit of fun to watch it fil up. Seems we got a good amount of well needed rain.
Up toward Sumter Landing on Buena Vista Blvd the road was full of water across both lanes. At least 10" or more on the right side. |

Well I’m thankful that my basement isn’t flooded and I didn’t have to take out my snow shovel. 😁

I have been here since the fall of 2021 and this is by far the most rain I have seen. I saw no flooding in Sawgrass area and none of the ponds in the area are anywhere near reaching the top so I figure that we could easily get a foot of rain without any flooding which is good news.
I have seen videos of the Villages after some hurricanes in which some areas were flooded. How does the rain compare to those of you who lived here during any hurricanes? Was the flooding caused by the hurricane or was the flooding deliberate by draining the ponds? |

What I now have is an app known as PWS Weather. It hooks into “Backyard” weather stations. So here in the Fenney area, I can “hook into” my neighbors weather station. It tells me current temperatures, dew point, wind speed, wind gusts, etc., It’s on the App Store and you can download it for free. However, it does not tell you future weather, only current data and it resets to “0” at midnight. In addition to that I also have weather forecast apps from “Weather Underground”, “Elecont” and “My Radar”. Hope that helps. |

My gauge says 6.5”, but honestly we hadn’t had much rain lately, and I don’t know when I last emptied it. Nice to have the rain! We needed it.

I had 4.1” in my gauge here in Harbor Hills from Saturday and another tenth of an inch on Sunday . On November 16 of this year we had 4.7” from that storm.
