Wow, so it's official! The National Weather Service says that in some places, we have had more rain in the last month than we have ever had in any previous month on record. (link)

Yup...it didn't take long before it settled down. Unfortunately I'd left my sliding door open and the screen closed when I took a shower. My living room took a shower, too. My floor is very, very clean now!

Re: Record-breaking rains
It was impressive how quickly the downpour came. A bright lightning flash around 10 p.m., and a minute later, the roar of falling water. Not just "rain," either, but big, fat, juicy drops that seemed to punch every surface. It seemed to come in waves... but then, peace again.
Of course, driving this morning to work, it was coming down in buckets again. Good thing we got out extra early... H-1 and H-2 were backed up past the merge by 5:40 a.m. Gotta say, the Nimitz Contraflow lane is pretty scary in heavy rain...

Re: Record-breaking rains
Warm air holds more moisture. The rains will break records more and more in the tropics in the coming years. Be thankful that you are not in the Midwest, where drier and drier conditions will continue to escalate.
When you study the Waianae Coast, and the Napili Coast of Maui, you can see where ocean level rise is going to get real uncomfortable in about 10-20 years. The smartest people are selling ocean front land at high prices RIGHT NOW all over Hawaii.
History of the Outer Banks of NC show that you dont want to own the land when the ocean comes to claim it. Inevitably you are left with nothing.
I always recommend that buyers buy the land across the street from the ocean, or 1 block up. I see very few "smart" people who own property right on the ocean.
