The rain began late last night and has continued since then.  There was 0.87″ at 8 AM in my gauge, and since then, we have received an additional 0.35″.  We may hit 2 inches yet by the time it’s done.  Radar is showing the end approaching us and I hope it happens soon.  My dog has refused to go out for her morning “business”, so she’s past due.  A flash flood watch remains in effect until 2 PM.
