more from Hugh...
Today's rain has, so far been the 3rd heaviest on any day over the last 3 years, and by this evening will probably be the 2nd wettest day. Presently, Midnight last night to 10am this morning, I recorded 88mm ( 3�" ) of rain. Last year I recorded 89.7mm as the highest. . . . .. If I take today as being from 8pm last night to 10am this morning, then I have 92mm ( 3.6" )

Looks like this is the night, If you haven't checked your bilge pump lately and you love your boat I bet you'll be out in this early morning downpour.
