Wow, we finally got rain. June 2 set rain records here:

At Melbourne International Airport through 9 a.m., 5.24 inches of rain has fallen. This washes away the previous record for this date of 1.30 inches set in 1960.

This also sets a daily maximum for the month. The previous wettest day in June was 5.00 inches on June 23 1984.

More rain is expected today and these records will continue to swell.


Our pool is literally full to the edges; the wind gust spills it over every so often. We so desperately needed this rain too, it was bone dry here.

I also got to test my new UPS last night when we lost power for an hour, worked great but it was odd still being online when the rest of the house was dark. I had 10 mins to shut down all my desktops and go to my wireless card and laptop.

Here is to a wet and wild June!
