Is 38mm of rain in one day or storm "the heaviest in years?"  |

WELL, now I'm wishing I'd have memorized the conversion charts when I was in school, but back in the 60s, we had no idea we'd ever need to remember things like that. 
I am sorry to hear that you've had such threatening weather. You probably are aware that a huge section of the U.S. has been experiencing terrible floods, too. Wonder what's up with all that.
