And the monsoons are here!

The rain came today!  It sprinkled at first, then came down like crazy sideways!  So excited for the beginning of the rainy season!
This is out the front window, the rain was going straight from left to right...

This is out the back door, looking at the big chicken pen behind the swing set.  The wind was going from right to left, and swirling!

This is the North East corner of the back porch.The water barrel I put out was right under the spout, but the water was fanning out around it as the rain swirled.

This video is from the kitchen window.  The rain came pouring through the window as I was out putting out the barrels, but wasn't too bad for cleaning up. The banging you hear in the video was hail!  So much water, the entire Northbound side of the road was flooded, I wonder how long before it all sinks in?
Hope the video works for you!

This was out rain gauge this morning- 1.75inches.  So how was the rain at your house?
