Agreed John l noticed still left over snow in south Sardis with snow piles left over in peoples yards and side streets.
Abbs only has parking lot drifts left as roads and yards are clear.

67.1mm storm total imby, Kristie said we were in the 60mm range, so outperforming unfortunately.

have the recurring, yet unplanned pond out back, at least there are no ducks swimming in it yet (that has happened a couple of times before during bad storms)

40.4 mm here since midnight. 81.4 mm storm total with 67.6 mm in the last 24 hours, so a rainfall warning would have easily verified.

My station recorded 32.3mm yesterday and another 36.3mm so far today. Storm total of 68.6mm with 60mm falling in the past 24hrs.

This AR definitely way over performed here so in hindsight a rainfall warning should have been issued.
