Oh-oh, now I've got a geyser!

Oh-oh, storm's coming... Sister in law phoned to tell me she'd just had 2 inches of rain dumped on her place in 30 minutes or so. There was a storm warning for my location expected to arrive by 6:25pm. Well, I can tell them that it was already here at 6:05pm. I saw the clouds bulging underneath and moving really quickly across the sky. See:

Then, after the calm the blowing, then rapid reduction in temperature, the rain started. I checked the gauge after about 10-15 minutes and there was almost 40mm. I think there's been a lot more because it's still raining now 6:55, but it was raining quite heavily from about 6:05 until about 6:45. Okay, just checked the rain gauge, 79mm!!!!! Which explains the geyser.....

And I couldn't not put this gratuitous pic of my boy Floyd in right here....

UPDATE:
bit of background info, temperatures haven't been very high during the flooding and for almost a week afterward, but the past three days up to today have been scorchers. Forecast temp on Monday was supposed to be 32, it was 35,Tuesday's forecast was for 34, but it was 37. Today's forecast was for 30, but it was 35. MDFD and I were lamenting how we miss winter, we'd even put up with dry skin to be cool and dry! (It's really, really humid which makes it seem much hotter.)
