Hearing from neighbors of amounts of rain last night from 1 to 1.5 inches
across only about 30 miles, I wondered what patterns it made.
This interesting precipitation map from National Weather Service shows
streaks of rain, with people a few miles apart getting different amounts.
Not surprisingly, they resemble radar maps from last night.

Swamp full; dog happy
Why yes, the swamp is full, and the dog is happy about it:
This picture doesn’t demonstrate that the dog can swim, because our boots weren’t that tall.
In any case, thanks to 9 inches of rain from tropical storm Fay.

Cypress Swamp: Dry, Filling….
Here’s a dry cypress swamp, with human for scale (hi Clayton):
That was on Monday 18 August.
Here’s the same swamp on Saturday, 23 August, after 4 inches of rain from tropical storm Fay, this time with human and dog for scale:
Fay dropped 5 more inches of rain on the swamp since then. Stay tuned to see if the dog can swim.
