Wow, no kidding? That's a good bit of rain!
Well, it will certainly help for sure.
I saw a report of over 12 inches inches in Lafayette county, which is in the Suwannee River valley of North Florida . Beryl came to a crawl once she reached the I-75 corridor and according to the NWS Tallahassee office earlier today, a torrenial feederband trained over that region.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
1137 AM EDT Tue May 29 2012
Upon further review, we made some last-minute adjustments to our
PoP forecast for this afternoon. Recent observations and RAP
forecasts indicate the 1000-700 mb mean wind will be in the 15 to
20 KT range, which would likely pin any sea breeze to the coast.
Indeed, the most recent HRRR run simulated reflectivity does not
show much sea breeze convection at all. It appears that the
convective band to our south (the rain band from tropical
depression Beryl that dumped a foot of rain in Lafayette County)
is the only significant convergence band in our region.
