Whoooo-eeee!!

It got very, very dark here a few minutes ago and there was a rumble of thunder in the distance. Then, quite suddenly the sky just opened up and it is pouring! A real gully-washer.

The weather quacks are calling for upwards to an inch of rain here today but if this continues, we're going to get that in an hour or less.

Seeing how it's coming down makes me even more understanding of just what the folks in Texas Rio Grande area must be facing with Dolly on their doorstep. THEY are supposed to get 24 inches of rain in the next 24 hours.

At least we aren't getting a lot of lightening or wind with this storm. There were a few minutes of gusty conditions but the rain is coming straight down now.

And Terry just left to go to a stitch-in up on Keuka Lake. I hope her little yellow Aveo floats!

Yeah, that is always the problem with rain..either not enough or too much!
