1.4 here western side of Afton.... 9.1 for the month..

And now under another flood warning and still no rain in the gauge....

Another day , another flood watch.. Set a personal record today with flood watches in a month - 31 years of record keeping...And another 0.00 in the gauge...

Same here....probably the only place in Va that can say that... massive rain totals just minutes away in all directions ...1.72 inches

Check out the Staunton flooding last night... 5 + inches... roads became legit rivers , videos show a mess... I am 8 miles away never saw anything but lightning..

Granted it had no effect in northern areas of Virginia but nothing can compare to what Camille did in Rockbridge and Nelson in 69.... Nov 85 was awful as well ....

Never underestimate tropical leftovers for inland rain even if they are moving at a rapid pace , especially with a front nearby and the Apps... older folks down here in the Va mountains will never forget what Camille's leftovers did .... 30 to 40 inches in about 5 hours in Nelson county... 125 + dead , some of which have never been found....

Picked up right at .70 from a heavy shower, with no lightning/thunder.....Just perfect to play in the rain with my autistic 8 yr old little boy who is addicted to water.....

Getting pounded in Waynesboro , Im not home im over in Charlottesville working so Im not sure how much is in my gauge on the Waynesboro line... The lady sent me pics of hail on her way home and said streets/roads are flooding.....

Got right at 1 inch northern Waynesboro...much needed.. sort of uncommon for us to get that much rain from a single convective shower or storm... Huge difference just on the east side of the mts where I lived for my first 30 yrs , been keeping precip records since I was 12.. much much wetter on avg just to the east of the mts , mostly from the huge difference in the summer storms..

.53 in gauge since Sat , all of that was last night... sounds like a rainforest developing in your yard the last couple of months....

Roanoke and surrounding counties have gotta be at least double avg ytd rainfall...Just the upper low last month and this one has dropped 15 to 20 inches combined down in that area...Seems like there are flood warnings every few days down there..

Send some up here... Love rainy days or nights.... Just clouds for a couple days not even a sprinkle here... Dry air winning out here again...

My yard is still waiting to cross the 2inch mark for the month... we did manage to get 1.6 last week, most of it in the final night of the event ... so that saved us from potentialy finishing May extremely dry....

Only have had .82 in my gauge for the entire month a couple miles from Afton eastern Augusta county..
