We've been raining to varying degrees since Sunday and are predicted through the weekend at least, with more most likely next week.  Some is predicted as "heavy", but most so far has been modest, which is nice.

Heavy rain after drought can cause problems in that it runs straight off 
the land and can cause flooding or go straight down the drains and into 
the sea.  It may not replenish the aquifers inless steady modest rain 
has softened the ground first.
