1" in the rain gauge here since Friday, surprisingly. I'm just outside of the Susquehanna valley.

According to NOAA, Sagamore got 6.50" and Chatham got 3.85".

RAIN??? Haven't seen any in these parts in quite a while and not much expected for the future.

Glad for you folks that wanted, needed and got some.

Pat, that's a lot of water. Eight inches... hmmmm... better than 216,000 gallons an acre.

3+ inches in CT....these soggy weekends are getting tiresome....

Ridiculous amount of water, Mr Shot. For three days I mostly kept siphon hoses running in some rain barrels in a corner where if I hadn't the volume of water would have soaked the basement. Some ponds that I saw today came up 3-4 feet. A steep dirt road near here has 3 foot-deep eroded gullies down the middle.

Yesterday we went to the atlantic shore while the storm center was a few hundred miles due east. The rollers were 15-20 feet high, the big ones. With the wind offshore it was really spectacular. A friend of mine (who is half-fish, at least) tried to get out to the sandbar. In fifteen minutes of trying he couldn't get ten feet out once over chest-deep.

Tomorrow may be the prime surf day for us......
