Sydney had the monthly average in a day Mon/Tue. The flashing on one of my sliding doors failed and sent water downstairs and ruined some gyprock.

We had some half decent rain 2 days last week and barely decent on a 3rd day. I thought my chives were dead and was going to replace them shortly but they resprouted with a vengeance.

Houston got a meter of rain last week. They would gladly give it all to you.

I am just glad we only got about ten inches in my part of Galveston County. Our home is higher than the surrounding area and we didn't flood during Harvey but were trapped and became an island for about two days. None of the flooding covered this time by the Media was in my area.
