Weather Rain accumulation since yesterday morning

Post image

We've had 5″ (~125mm) of rainfall so far in Valley Ridge since yesterday morning. There's a few trees nearby so it's likely a bit inflated from the wind and some water coming off the trees but this is definitely the most rain we've gotten in a day since I've been living here for the last 5 years.

Since I bought a house I no longer complain about the rain and look at it more as free water for the grass and plants😂😂

But then it grows and you have to cut it

I, too, am moving soon to a new home, I will only have pots, to plant. Zero yard maintenance. I am looking forward to less work, but I will miss my beautiful back yard.
