3.28" of rain over here according to my station. Never had that much rain so fast before. As bad as it was, hard to believe places just to the west got almost twice that amount. That storm sat over there for a quite a while before sliding east.

Radar estimated precipitation map is attached. Sometimes they are fairly inaccurate but for this storm it appears dead-on.
We just came up from MA and there are a number of road washouts. We missed the weather, but the after effect is pretty spectacular. There is a washout on route 106 just south of the prison. Within South Down there is a washout on Outerbridge Road (passible) and Davidson (by the pond).
