Jeez, this weather is fickle. Just finished moving into the new place and spent a lot of sweat filling in the holes up the driveway so folks can visit. Last 2 nights she was 24deg with 90% humidity and just plain stinkin hot!
Yesterday we got a storm that dumped 235mm in the rain gauge just 80 minutes. Don't know how much missed the gauge but it was blowing so hard that the outer wall was wet four feet off the floor on a 12 foot wide verandah.
The bloody driveway has got 3x15" deep canal's across it and there was about 4" of top soil washed half way down the hill.
Far canal, that was rain!

Welcome to rural living....

Don't worry about a little rain,you're a Cocky now.
e.g.Whinge when there's no rain and whinge when it floods.

Maybe you can apply for flood relief?

I thought you might like a moat to your castle.
