Rain today

[Rich Z]

Got 0.41" Wednesday morning.

Only about .20" Tuse.

We had a short but pretty intense rainstorm this morning. Knocked some fruits off of one of our Asian pear trees. Only registered 0.12" on the rain gauge, though.

Darn shame that my windspeed gauge doesn't seem to work very well.

Rained off and on all day today. Usually rained when I was trying to work on my Onan standby generator....

All in all it only amounted to 0.26" of rain over what we got early this morning, so it was really little more than nuisance rain.

Power did flicker several times. Sort of brought back the memories of the power companies in this area being known as "Florida Flicker and Flash". I'm surprised power hasn't gone kaput for a long spell now that my generator is out of action. Murphy's Law just loves pulling crap like that.

Only .20" Thurs.

The morning actually looked promising. For a while. Then it pretty much rained all the rest of the day. So I didn't get to work on the generator like I had hoped I would be able to.

2.32 inches of rain logged.

[CHASZ51]

.50" Fri.

We got 0.28" more rain overnight. Looks like the rain bands from Barry have moved on out to the west.

Hope all the rain we got doesn't produce a population bloom of mosquitoes. I've got four Mosquito Magnets running right now. Been seeing some really small mosquitoes around here after the yellow flies began to taper off.

I need 3 or 4 days to dry out. Got around 10" so far this month.

Yeah, we have gotten 7.12" of rain here so far for July.
