Just checking to see if anyone else is floating away with the rain. Thankfully we do have the dumpsters tied down. There are a couple of underpasses in Houston that have 15 - 20 feet of water standing in them. Even the ducks are having problems.

Over here in Jersey, it is bright and sunny, if a little on the cool side. I will see if I can send some of these big fluffy white clouds your way.

Slightly overcast here in CA... supposed to get warm again this week... might see some rain later in the year. (Don't get mad our average house price is 10 times anywhere else, which is why I rent)

Hope you guys dry out and stay safe out there... guess we will find out if SR77 rusts much or not!

Here in South Carolina it has been pretty dry of late. However, we are expecting a lot of rain tomorrow, but I doubt that we can compete with Houston.

It's been raining here most of the day. We've had flooded underpasses like that in Abilene. In rains so little there, they never put in storm drains. But when there's a gully washer, it about washes everything away. They had an underpass with like 12+ feet over water. A bus driver didn't know it was that deep and tried to drive through it. I have a pic somewhere from the paper of the bus top floating in the water. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Well, we got the rain!
It has been coming down steadily since this morning. It is now 7 in the evening. So, about 12 hours straight.
The good news is, my store isn't flooded.... yet.
