rain amount last night

Post by tailwaters »

By chance does anyone know how many inches of rain we got last night on the N side of Tally? When I let my dogs out this morning at 6 to use the bathroom I didn't understand why they wouldn't walk off the porch. Then I noticed my front yard was under water. The pond I live on that's in my back yard came up a good 4'.

Don’t have a rain gauge, but I put out an empty bucket out yesterday before the rain and there is at least 4” if not more

Four feet or inches? "

It was a deluge, regardless. My backyard feels like a soaked sponge.

Mine said feet, I meant inches. Tw was talking feet in his pond. The lake in my backyard is over our dock

:o

It's going to mess up the water clarity and salinity at the coast, for sure.

And it's pouring again in Tallahassee.

AFTER READING THE REPORT OF INCHES IN GRADY COUNTY, I WENT OUT TO THE SHOP AND CHECKED HOW MUCH WE HAD SINCE MON. , I WAS SHOCKED , IT SHOWED 9.8 INCHES UP HERE ON TOP OF THE HILL. THAT IS THE MOST WE HAVE EVER HAD IN THE LAST 30 YEARS WE HAVE BEEN LIVIN HERE. WENT OVER TO THE POND ACROSS THE ROAD FROM THE HOUSE AND IT IS STILL RUNNING OUT THE OVERFLOW ON THE DAM ABOUT 3 INCHES DEEP. I GUESS I WILL GET A TOTAL TOMORROW WHEN I GET UP.
