Glug, glug.
A little over 3". Had to unplug two downspouts in between lightning bolts.

No problems. Didn't get too deep. Rain didn't come down fast enough to overwhelm pumps.

It's been rainy and drizzly here since last Tuesday. Still some 2 inches below normal since 1 JAN. That won't bode very well when fire season starts.

Re: Area Precipitation
Can't give a report on last night's rain since my rain gauge batteries died in the wireless gauge and display unit. I'd suspect it was close to an 1". Inside sump pump was cycling every minute for a couple of hours while my outside (yes outside in the backyard) ran pretty much non-stop for a couple of hours. High watermarks weren't very impressive. Seen them much worse.

No idea how much we had, but I live on the South East side of town. Basement has been really good though. Just a little water in my furnace room!
