DH just emptied our rain gauge...it was overflowing the top at 4". And apparently the sump pump kicked off for a bit, so now there's some water in the basement. (Not too much thankfully.)

I got drenched running a short distance from the car to the doctor's office. The rain is bad enough, but the wind is wild!

And it's still raining.

Me too !! I went to run to town and found a tire needed air, so I was drowned before I left the yard. You are right about the wind its crazy.

Hope you're dry and warm now Sue. I think we've both had enough of the rain for a while!

The power outages with this storm is amazing:

According to PowerOutage.us, a website that tracks power outages across the United States, more than 4.6 million customers in 10 states were without power just after 2 p.m. ET as a result of Helene.

• South Carolina: 1,265,187
• Georgia: 959,735
• North Carolina: 913,504
• Florida: 838,301
• Virginia: 227,145
• Kentucky: 211,584
• Tennessee: 112,037
• West Virginia: 73,348
• Ohio: 62,025
• Indiana: 11,727

KY is right below yellow Ohio and TN is below KY.

Sue, I find it interesting that KY has more power outages than TN since you are farther south and closer to where the storm came from.
