The Rain in Maine...

Geesh, Drew just put out the rain gauge to measure the rainfall from 6am until the storm is over this afternoon. We are in the flood watch zone. UPDATE: WE MEASURED 2.2 inches of rain and figure that there was at least a total of 3 inches from the start of the storm Friday night until the bitter end. AND, people were hydroplaning on the highway. We saw two, single-car accidents within a half mile of each other.

Now, Weather.com says,

Rain is expected to continue to spread northeast today and become heavy at times through tonight. By this afternoon 1 to 2 inches of rain is expected with some totals approaching 3 inches. This rainfall in combination with some snow melt and already high river levels will cause additional rises on area rivers. Minor river flooding is possible as well as ponding of water in urban and poor drainage areas.

AND, there will be wind along with the rain. Check out these temperatures! By the way, we are slated to get back to normal and have snow on Tuesday;-)
