I thought it was because I came down. I took the car to the car wash Sunday after the drive down from Indy and I didn't even make it home before I got nailed. We were driving between FtM and Naples Saturday when that bit one came through. There was quite a bit of wind attached to that one.

Mine sits in a parking lot every day. We haven't had enough rain in Jax for the lawns, but enough to make me wash the car at least twice a week

But, as said above, I'll take constant washing over having to put the car up for 4 or so months a year any day!

We're only sitting at 4.24 inches so far this month in Largo. Pinellas county.

Wouldn't change it for the world! Got friends in the North East...talk about pounding rain and no drainage system for it.

I have to admit, grudgingly, we got lucky with Ernesto. Heck, our roads never even got wet.

Although my Best Buy Service Tech cancelled due to "the Hurricane"..

So we got basically no rain whatsoever from Ernesto so I'll stop complaining, for at least ten minutes.....

Man, I'm with you there. I haven't even tried to wash my cars in over 3 weeks. It's just not worth it. A few hours of sunshine a day and then rain.

The nice part is ….I haven’t had to fill the pool or turn the sprinklers on for a long time.
I love to watch a good storm roll by but d-ham, all this rain makes for some louse cruising.

At least it's not hailing.

I was in Ohio in July visiting family and it started hailing! I asked at what point does it start denting my truck? They told me golf ball size
1/2 inch rain Saturday and 2 inches today here in Naples
