      Looks like 1.7 inches…here was the heaviest rain I have been present at, every time you thought it could not get heavier, it did…Torrential rain in Broome, WA

      From BOM: Thursday 30 January 1997 14.55 updated 18.20

      Massive convergence of moist air into a low in the monsoonal trough over the Kimberleys in northern WA appears to be the cause of exceptionally heavy rain in Broome overnight. Broome Airport recorded 477mm in the 24 hours to 09.00 WST this morning, with the ABC reporting that 435mm fell in the 5 hours between 21.00 yesterday and 02.00 this morning with 188mm in one 80 minute period.
