Wow...Talk About Drought-Busting!

Did someone say we were under some type of drought??? Uh...all I know is that I was under some type of cloudburst that even the Energizer bunny would have a hard time keeping up with.

Check out some of these rainfall totals during the past 24 hours...(these are unofficial)

At my location in Valley Station - nearly 3.50"
Louisville Int'l - 3.36"

Here are some from the volunteer network CoCoRaHS...
Enlarge the map above and see some locations nearby your place. Overall, our region had some of the heaviest 24-hour rainfall totals, again, unofficially.

Other rainfall totals from MSD rain gauges...
