Local Flooding

It was sunny this morning, but it started raining around 10:00PM last night and by daybreak we had recorded 2.66 inches of rain with our weather station. This was a large amount of rain but north of us a few miles they received over 5 inches of rain which caused Wysox Creek to flood the town of Rome. At 2:30PM we receive an additional 0.56 inches of rain to bring the total to 3.22 inches of rain, with more rain showing up on radar.
