   I had to look it up; we average 45 inches of rain per year and got about a   
   third of an inch today. We don't have to worry about getting water logged as   
   our property is on a gentle slope down to a creek at the north end of the   
   property, so unless we get a    
   major downpour, the excess runs off.
