I had 3.75 inches of rain last night in Cape Coral! What did the rest of Florida get?

Lived in Cape Coral, Miami, Orlando and St. Petersburg Florida.

5.1" here in New Port Richey, with obs in Land O Lakes hitting 6 1/2" and my trip to Orlando today - I saw new lakes formed I never remembered before. Just swamps on thh sides of the roads. It just came down in buckets. A lot of thunder and lightning. So odd for November. Our avg for the month is 2.1" and we almost tripled that in 24 hours!

Begonias are my thing. I've been growing and selling them for three decades, nearly two in Tampa Bay. NPR is an bhour N of St Pete, coast

Agreed Moose and Eric. My new garden had needed SO MUCH irrigation it had become ridiculous. My water bill last month (Oct 10-Nov 10) was $640 :bemused: I am thankful for this deep soaking. About 5.75" at my house. The FL aquifer is continually being depleted by human activities, so any above normal rainfall can only help in that regard. I hope it stays wetter than normal.
