6 inchs of rain?

[Team Elkhorn]

My son just called asking for directions because the Edens Expressway is closed because its underwater. Just heard on the news they (Chicago) got 6 inch's of rain. First record heat than rain. I guess I better run to Lowe's to get a new battery for our backup sump pump. I wasn't in a hurry to replace it because its summer and usually dry.

Sounds like us last weekend. Car repair shops are pretty busy fixing all the water damaged cars from the flooding. We had 6.5 inches between Friday and Saturday.

3 years ago we set some records with 17 inches of rain in a 24 hour period. I think it was like 24 inches in 2 days. Mud slides and crazyness all over. I was on call with the fire dept for something like 50 straight hours. South east minnesota. Houston county. Thats alot of snow......
