More rain today than accumulated snowfall in the past 20 months. Looks like 8PM right now, pouring, and over 4" for the day.

I was wondering how much we have gotten so far today. We will probably be over 6 inches by the time it is all over. What i would not give to have that in the winter.

My totals are unofficial, although they match up with the radar estimates pretty well. But once the yard goes under water it doesn't really matter any more. I just want the basement to stay dry.

Did you see Reisterstown Road in front of the Library it is completely flooded. I hope your basement stays dry.

Jumpers Hole Rd & Ritchie Highway in the Pasadena area, reported 3 feet of water. A lot of flooding reports

I was 2 miles from there a 15 minutes ago and it was almost as dark as night pouring rain

can't wait for the 3PM BWI update because it has really been pouring all around the airport
