    One inch, according to my rain gauge. Some of the rain was horizontal so not sure JUST how accurate but not much more, if any.

    This is kind of atypical, but the worst part for us was on the back end. It had been rainy/windy since Tuesday a.m., but the strongest winds and heaviest rains started yesterday afternoon and lasted pretty much until about 5am Thursday. Usually, we get the worst stuff up front and it tapers off as it goes by, but this was a weird storm; especially since it moved s o s l o w.

    West side of the storm had little rain, it was sucking dry air from texas. East side of the storm got deluged with wet air coming off the gulf. When it stalled, the east just kept getting torrential rain and the west dried out

    One branch was down in the back yard, no other major damage, was out of power for two days but had a generator and window unit to keep things cool.
