Wulze, any rain is good? 5.5 inches doesn't do anyone any good. At that volume it's all damage and straight runoff to the ocean. It probably does zero to augment the aquifer after all that rainfall in the last month. Unless the aquifer here is a big wide open pit. Or if the local residents would be conservation minded and have catchment basins of some kind.
I'm glad that the dry season is finally over though.
