ORIGINAL: ghitaPVH we got three inches of rain.....whoohoo...its about damn time too. unfortunantly I lost another tree. damn wind. one of these days Im going to look out and there wont be a single tree left on my property. everytime it rains I lose at least one. fuckers. All of my trees survived and only one shrub split down the middle, despite that rotational winds had passed overhead. The four inches of rain fell, three of which fell during a fifteen minute period. That was nice and should help our deficit (provided it soaks in before it evaporates off). Thank you remnants of Olga! woot! And for you folks up north, dealing with the snow, here's something to put it in perspective for you. The four inches of rain ghita and I received are the equivalent of approximately 36 to 44 inches of snow. At the rate of 10 to 12 inches of rain per hour that the rain was falling, the equivalent snowfall accumulation would have been 36 to 52 inches per hour. Something to think about.
