7/14/2011 7:00 AM T M M M M There was in fact 0.01" in my gauge this morning, but I strongly suspect the majority of that water was dew, and not rain. We did have a light sprinkle (never fully wet anything) ~17:30ish, followed by maybe a drop or two more from storms just missed us to the north and east about an hour later or so. I am fairly confident no additional rain fell after that time, and we did have a heavy dew this morning.

9/6/2011 6:40 AM 0.39 M M M M First shower started roughly 16:00 yesterday, and rain began in earnest overnight. Last night at ~22:30 I noticed the window fogging from the outside (our AC generally stays at ~74-76 degrees) and went outside to feel the air. My first unexpected impression was of morning air on Hatteras Island - there seemed to be just a slight sea smell to the air, which was also quiet humid and mild.
9/7/2011 7:04 AM 1.60 M M M M Glanced at the gauge at ~16:30 and noted ~0.90". Thunder and heavy rain between ~03:30 and ~04:00 or so while I tried to sleep! :) Pleasant but very humid yesterday and this morning.
9/8/2011 6:45 AM 3.19 M M M M Our yard flooded with last night's ~20:30 - ~23:30 heavy rain with several inches of water in some places. The ground was already fully saturated after the previous day's rains, and the inch that had already fallen earlier in the day. The extended heavy rain did afford one new experience: washing in the rain. After donning quick drying exercise clothes (we have neighbors and don't want to scandalize them - thinking I'm crazy fine, scandalize no), I went out in the rain with some tallow and hardwood ash lye soap I made experimentally earlier this year and made full and good use of the 'shower'. Rinsing was a bit more of a challenge than I anticipated, and with a momentary lull worrying me when only half rinsed I supplemented with our hose to make sure my fabric and hair were fully soap free. The rain picked back up again after a bit and scolded my impatience ;). None the less, that is the first 'rain shower' I have ever taken!
9/9/2011 7:30 AM 1.00 M M M M Was surprised a bit by just how 'difficult' a 1.00" ob is as it is right at the cusp of dribbling through the overflow hole. Don't loose that drip! :) The unusual flooding entry below is taking into consideration the amount of precip. we had to case the minor flooding we had. The ground is utterly saturated, and any additional precipitation runs off.
