It was a dark and stormy night

Well, it wasn't all THAT stormy at night, but during the day it was pretty bad.

My weather station recorded 3/4 of an inch (19 mm) of rain in the past 24 hours. About half an inch (12.7 mm) fell in under 15 minutes just after 1 PM yesterday.

It was also quite windy, with gusts up to 23.4 knots (26.9 MPH, 43.3 KPH or Beaufort Force 6) and a wind run of 128.6 Nautical Miles (148 statute miles or 238.2 km)

And we really only caught the tail end of the storm, Northern California was hit much worse.
