Rain is what we need now, and when this is done, we can use a lot more.<\/p>\n
Rounds of rain with embedded thunderstorms continue over most of the viewing area. Lightning has been limited, though we had a couple of good downpours that turned puddles into ponds and left standing water on roadways. Radar estimates for the area near Russell Sampson Rd. in St. Johns County show 3-5 inches.<\/p>\n
