Rare to have the heavy rain so widespread. 

Yeah, this storm packed a lot of moisture.  Outside of convection during the Summer, this was some of the heaviest rain I've seen in a while.  The winds with the Backdoor were impressive Saturday night and into Sunday as well.

Pop goes the thermometer - It's 58* here now with filtered sunlight. Looks like the stations around me recorded between 1.89 6 miles to my SW and 3.88 12 miles to my NE with 3.03 here in my town. I'm going to go take a ride and see how high some of the creeks are and check out the overflow dams on the reservoirs, I bet it's impressive.
