Nine inches? Serious? Did you get that much? Got webbing between your
toes?
Yup, in three days, actually two and a half, we got almost eighteen
inches of rain. Remember, we're living on top of a prehistoric sand
dune, water soaks right in. Nearest rock is several thousand feet
straight down.
In addition, we have an excellent gravity drainage system, concrete
canals all carry excess rainwater down to a couple of bayous, a large
river, and then to the Gulf. We seldom have homes flood here in this
town. Now flooded streets are common during the downpour, within thirty
minutes after the rain stops the streets are clear again.
No webbing, we just sit here in a remodeled house and watch the rain
fall. Having been retired for over five years now I get to stay warm and
dry instead of getting out in the weather.
Watching the weather report a few minutes ago, seems some of the
northern states and even down into the midwest are facing a possible
freeze today and tonight. It's 84F here right now with a nice breeze
blowing in from the north. Eat yer hearts out Yankee's. |
Everyone likes rainy day.Rainy season is my favorite season.If you are planning to make a new dishes.Its very good ideas.I can suggest some tips for that particular time.
