We had almost 7" of rain on Sunday and Monday. My newly planted bean
seeds were under water. Guess I will just wait and see what happens.
I won't be able to walk in the garden for several days.
A good thing about the rain, the asparagus has had a resurgence.
I hope there isn't flooding in your area beyond the obvious transient
....annoyance and concern a deluge causes.
Our flooding here is subtle. Ground water rises and basements flood.
Septic systems no longer work and looking about everything looks normal.
I monitor ground water levels more than my rain gauge.
Last year we received 9 inches do rain in about 10 hours. Got me
thinking about a sump pump first time in 40 years.
