We've got less than an inch of rain here north of Daytona. My lawn is grateful. Otherwise, it petered out early, so just another summer storm. Fortunate!

I'm in a small town in between Jacksonville and Gainesville. Just emptied the rain gauge - 7 inches. It's still coming down heavy.

I’ve lived in Sarasota for 23 years and this is the worst flooding I’ve ever seen. There is way steep water on my street. People running around in kayaks some mailboxes nearly submerged.

Yeah. Bad here as well. Looks like the rain just gave up in the last 30 minutes

Still raining here in So Venice too. Not to mention the wind and heavy thunderstorms and lightning that are expected to continue through tomorrow. The heavens are angry!

Well in central florida places are flooded, employers cancelled work because of that and tornado warnings, and catfish are being found in parking lots and backyards. 😂 So it didn’t peter out everywhere.

Be careful with the catfish!

Not because of the barbs, but because you don't want to be found illegally in possession of a catfish between the lengths of 10 3/4 and 11 1/4 inches that you have not reported to Fish and Game within 27 minutes by filing a certain form in triplicate.

You don't want to find yourself in front of the Supreme Court . . .
