Man that looked terrible..hope u dont lose anything...do u normally get that much rain?

[theproducegarden]

@kokonutbaby1 not all at once like this, this was just a small section of it, its full on!

Hope the is no major damage. Here is my unsolicited suggestion - Take off your clothes and go have some fun splashing in the puddles. Let the inner child out. Then after you have laughed and giggled like a child you can go back to doing the adult stuff of accessing any damage.

@herviews if i wasn't getting over the flu, i'd be in there! lol

Oh didn't know you were putting in a new water feature? Your chooks got their rubber boots and floaties on?

We in South Aus got a lot of rain in one hit too but by the looks of it, nothing like what you got. At least this should soak down deep into the earth and give some of those bigger trees something to drink up.. They wouldn't have had a good deep drink for a LONG time.

Now that''s just plain greedy Christian! - We are dying for some rain over here in Perth (we've had none our way- maybe 4 days the whole winter). I can see where it's all been going!!!

At least it gives you an idea of where to put swales in for next year. :)

Yes I hope you and all the critters are well. Sheesh, what a storm. In, Massachusetts, US we have been getting more and more monsoon type weather.

Christian, Hope you and the chickens are ok!! That's a whole lot of rain!

The very first of our spring season here we got a rain similar to that. It took out all of my onions and smashed my corn stalks. My squash plants died about a week later.

Interesting amount of water. We had similar rain last month in germany, more than 200 mm per qm. Maybe some swales at the right position could make the water useful for you.

Oh I saw that you had lots of flood there. Hope it dries up fast!

[Praxxus55712]

On the good side of this, hopefully it filled up the pond you have in the back of your property? But wow that's some serious rain!

[KasinH]

Oh, my. Sending good thoughts your way. Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow . . . things will get better.
