Hi, I am not low country but we got 2.50 inches. So I am saying HOORAY!!!!!!!!! We have been in such a terrible drought that it was wonderful to see.

we are drenched! the clay is totally sliding

We got about an inch and a half. This is what the National Weather Service said were official rainfall amounts (they pick some weird towns):

Neighbors rain gauge said close to 3 inches this morning and I swear everything turned green over night. Not a puddle to be found, everything in the yard loaded up with water.

Looks like we'll get some more rain later this week. Mother nature has been working against me the last couple of years I would like a nice warm, wet spring.

My gauge at my house says 2.3 inches since last Thursday.

Weather Underground lists my area as 1.46 inches on Sat.

It has been wet!

We had an inch and a half but your are right Corey, everything turned bright green overnight, especially the grass. It was sort of amazing, you can usually see it coming.


Where the heck is Witherbee, SC??? Never heard of that one.

From Thursday thru Sat we had over 3 inches. We are now just about on target with the amount of rain we are supposed to have for the year. I sure hope this trend keeps up and we officially end the drought.

Were due some more rain today thru Friday here.

Here comes some m0re rain. I'm fine with that.

Yup! Get all those plants well rooted in before summer!

Okay we've had enough for this week. LOL, turn the rain off. Saw puddles this morning and it's pouring rain at this moment. Think we're filled up at this point.

Ditto .. my poor butterfly ginger are underwater. I hope they can hold their breath! I haven't even had a chance to go check the rain gauge!

We had 2 1/4" earlier in the week. Since last night, we've had another 3". We have a nice little pond in our back yard. :)

We had quite a bit the past few days. Some of my yard is still boggy. My tomatoes and peppers look OK though.

Someone from SAV. Nice, I never run into anyone from Savannah in the GA forum it's always people from upstate GA.

We have a few gardeners from the low country on this forum some from just up the road from you.

Yes, wlcome and please visit more often,

We had several brief downpours last evening, adding up to an inch of rain in probably less than 2 hrs.

I used to live in beaufort.

Cool!
