we needed rain, but come on!

Wow! When they say it never rains but it pours, they mean here. Five inches in a couple of hours last night. I've never seen anything like it before around here. And they're calling for more tonight. In fact as I sit here it's starting up again.
This is the kind of thing I expect in the southwest this time of year, dry with deluges in between, not the midwest. Weather is really getting strange. At least my garden likes it.
