> It doesn't happen too often, but we had a January heavy
> thunderstorm in Cape Coral Monday night. It began
> about 11PM. We new rain was a possibility but a full
> blown thunder storm was not expected as all of the
> heavier weather was to be to the north of us coming
> across from the Gulf of Mexico. We had strong wind
> gusts and heavy lightning and thunder. Rain was very
> heavy for about 1 1/2 hours as in that time we received
> 1.6 inches of rain (measured in my rain gauge). At
> 2:45AM, a second squall came thru accented by heavy
> thunder. A steady rain began which lasted until morning
> daylight; this added another .3 inch making a total of
> 1.9 inches of rain. This was a welcome event to help
> insure that we have enough water to get thru the dry
> season without the drought problems of last year. It
> was not snow, but this was a big storm. The result will
> be warmer temperatures approaching 80 degrees F later
> in the week. At present it is 72 degrees F. We welcome
> the return to our normal temperature levels. Richard
