Absolutely, but that much fell in a few of hours in Houston when I was
there a few weeks ago and didn't cause a flood, or surprise anyone.

If you live in Southern Australia and you rely on rain (farmers etc)
while there is cause for cautious optimism at the moment, even this
year is down on the long term rainfall average in most areas.
