Last nights rain was  considered especially heavy.  The amount of rain was enormous and  had a fast on-set according to my weather station.


90 mm of rain in one night is a huge amount for a small place like Arillas.

Every 1 millimeter of rain corresponds to 1 liter of water falling on every 1 square meter of surface. So, 90 millimeters means that 90 liters of water fell on every square meter! Imagine: On a 100 square meter rooftop, a total of 90 × 100 = 9,000 liters of water fell!

90mm  rain is a very large amount of rain, especially if it fell last night in Arillas area

Such an amount usually causes serious problems and floods, as the ground and drainage systems cannot absorb or remove so much water quickly.

For many areas in Greece, 90 mm is a rainfall amount that can exceed the total monthly average for the entire month.

According to my good friend and fellow weather-entusiast Iacovos Vasilakis, our Arillas  weather station recorded the most water fall of the entire island compared to the other stations located n Corfu.
