I said "couldn't be" but the NE sky was dark. When in the store, halfway between here and GA-CT-2, the skies opened and the street was flooded to the curb within minutes. Here at CT-17, got 0.78" in 20 minutes between 3:10 and 3:30 PM. Later, I checked the radar loop and saw a rapid pop-up, which split into two cells. One went offshore; the other south over Skidaway and Ossabaw Islands. (At the time, a cold front had just dropped south of here.)
