This is one of those examples where the official rain gauges barely recorded anything but it clearly dumped some rain to make the high water crossings on the RMSD flood.   :celebrate:
temperatures exceed 100 degrees F
minimum 1 gallon water per person/day
no shade, no water

I totally agree, I was keeping an eye on the automated weather stations and you clearly see that rain was falling, humidity WAY up >65% + solar radiation really low and gusty wind conditions. But nothing on the rain gauges. The next 2 days should be good for the park, any extra water the area gets will welcomed.
