2 1/2" of rain in a bit over 12 hours

Gardening slippers
According to our rain gauge, we've had a tad over 2.5 inches of rain in the last 12 hours or a bit longer.

The garden soil will be of perfect tilth to work in a couple of days, if it isn't still raining.

Our rain barrels are full.

Our individual gallon jugs are not full, but the rest of our rainwater storage capacity is about filled up.  However, it's cold out so I'm not going to fill the jugs now; I'll wait till this weekend, and hopefully we'll receive more rain after that point to fill the barrels back up.

For the record the amount in the rain gauge Friday was 2.49" reading the bottom of the meniscus. On Saturday there was a additional 0.26". Today, Sunday, there is but a trace so far. It looks like rain will fall before nightfall.
