actually it does, light rain just gets the ground wet in the first few inches, but heavy rain like you had saturates the soil so any more goes deeper and deeper, also causes the rivers, lakes etc to rise again which all increases the amount in the water table.
but it would have been better to get it a month ago befor crops are planted.
