Walt says it rained really hard for a good hour overnight. There was a lot of lightning and thunder as well. You couldn't prove it by me, though. I slept soundly right through it all.
I just checked the rain gauge and saw that we got another 40 mm (1.6 inches) of rainfall overnight, after getting the same amount on Saturday and Sunday combined. This is the third time, I believe, that we've had water on the garage floor since we moved here in 2003, but as I said, never this much before. Luckily, only one cardboard box of papers got slightly wet.
I’d bet there’ll be some rearranging in the garage after this. I love your rain gear.
ReplyDeleteThat's Walt in his rain gear — pajama pants, a T-shirt, and a henley shirt. He wasn't too happy to be downstairs with a squeegee at 6 a.m.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly did rain! Glad you're not too badly affected.
ReplyDeleteI called a couvreur (roofer) this morning to come have a look at several flashing, rain gutter, and downspout issues that are plaguing us right now. They were things that the delinquent contractor who we finally fired after 18 months was supposed to fix when he started work here.
DeleteGlad it wasn't too serious.
ReplyDeleteYou were lucky, this time.

This was a storm like the one we had when you were here that evening a decade or more ago.
