How wet was it?

Yes, the rumors were true, we had an extremely wet August here in Wisconsin, and parts of the state had some serious flooding. We were spared any flooding, and the foundation repair held, and the basement stayed dry. We did, however, end up with some rather striking crops in our lawn.

Now, just how wet was it? Well, the previous wettest months on record were all 10 point something inches of rain. In August, we received over 15 inches - 50% more than the wettest months ever recorded. Uff-da.
