Re: isn't it moving fast?

Agreed lonny. I'm thinking a general 1-2" swath with some up to 5". One thing about doppler estimates is they can also underestimate rainfall. People make a big deal out of the fact that they sometimes overestimate rainfall totals, but they can also underestimate them in weak systems. Some of that rainfall just isn't picked up. At least it looks like a good stretch of .3-.6" so far in South Florida. And if you look at the actual radar, there's plenty more where that came from. So far it's just a "trace" in most of the rest of the Peninsula but that should be changing overnight and tomorrow. Maybe this will clamp down on the fire threats and at least start the process of getting some of those water levels back to normal again.
