Thanks.

As an aside, I have been receiving one minute data from 5 Davis gauges scattered across DFW airport for about a year now.  A quick check revealed only 17 minutes (combined) where a gauge reported over .1" in a minute.  All but 3 were .12 or less.  On 9/22/18, 3rd wettest day at DFW airport all time (>8"), at the same gauge we had .14 and .19" in a three minute span.  And in between... .63".  Otherwise the gauge data looks perfectly normal and have never had any other outliers like that.  

Hard to explain this sort of thing in sensor data.  Inclination is to toss, but I guess you never know.

idk what to tell you. Every few years I pull off a 0.10-0.12"/min. Either last year or the year before I recall a 0.14", but I'd have to go digging. I've never had anything this high...nevermind 2 straight minutes of it. You know how random this stuff is. I've had storms drop 2-3x this total with a 1-min max of like 0.10", but it ends up raining for 45 mins at 4"/hr.

 

Looked up the record hourly rainfalls for some sites and found one from 2015 for CON. They pulled a 0.19" in 1 min...0.47" in 3mins (more than me) and 0.73" in 5mins.
