OT: Now we're really drowning

We are really in bad shape in some counties now. Many counties are flooding
(record breaking) I feel so sorry for those areas. Lots of evacuations. I
can't get over the rain! Had some salmon in one area swimming across the
roadway! :) It is really horrible flooding, though, just awful.

Well, we are drowning here. Rain and wind like you wouldn't believe.
They
expect a month's worth of rain in one day tomorrow. If you watch Monday
night football tomorrow, I'm sure it will be windy and raining! Rivers
are
already flooding and the big storm hits tomorrow. We had severe rain and
some wind Friday, lots worse up north of us. All our rivers are close to
cresting! Like I said the major storm hasn't even hit, its due tomorrow
and
Tuesday! :( Saturday I was watching a movie and could hardly hear it as
it
was raining so hard. It sounded like someone was pouring buckets on the
house. It is so fun to watch the cats looking up at the skylights! :)

I think I'll go work on the Ark!!!
