Nope , we did not . I live near the mail station in Citrus Grove.

Our ENTIRE rainfall for the WHOLE WEEK was less than 3 inches .

My 24 hr rainfall on the rain gauge at the house was .81

My Rachio irrigation system keeps sending me multiple e-mails saying there is rain, so no irrigation needed...haha guess that means 3.7" worth?

The data is from my Tempst personal weather station (PWD) but there are several apps that let you access PWS near you.

PWS Monitor on the App Store

PWS Connect: ad-free weather on the App Store

Weather Underground: Local Map on the App Store

Example map from the PWS monitor app of stations below the Turnpike

If you go to Weather Underground and look at all the PWS’s around you, you can see the rainfall at each station and see how it varies.
