Greetings all,
(From Tom)
We had a little rain last night.

A thunderstorm set up camp right
over Sandpipers.
We had thunder and lightening for about two hours
with constant heavy rain.
The radar during this storm showed a rain hood
coming off this thunderstorm that extended about 50 miles into the Gulf of Mexico. Through the whole storm the radar showed the red area of heaviest rain right over Sandpipers.

It's no wonder that we look like this.
Rain gauges in the park showed between 4 and 5 inches of rain.

I took pictures about 11:30 p.m. and then did quite a few more this morning. We've seen this before. The last time was after Hurricane Dolly in 2010, shortly after we got our house here at Sandpipers. Preparing our lot for the house we removed the topsoil and put about 18 inches of fill rock in to elevate the lot.
It is paying off.
These are two panoramic photos. When you view them, you can enlarge them to fill the vertical dimension of the screen. They will spill off the sides of the screen. You can then scroll the pictures to view them as a continuous 180 degree view using the hand tool or the scroll bar at the bottom of the screen on most computers. I left these at full file size so you can make this enlargement without losing resolution.
