Flooding

Our summer weather has been crazy to say the least. We recently saw record rainfall totals and flash flooding across the state. The county we live in was hit the hardest with 12 inches of rain in a little more than 4 hours and saw flooding on a massive scale.

Scott and I were very lucky not to have any damage as those around us got hit  pretty hard. Our yard looked like a swimming pool, but no damage to our house. 

Here are some pictures of the storm as it hit us and the aftermath in town.

To be honest with you, I love the rain. I could live without the flooding, but the rain makes me feel right at home. And the best part? Usually where there is rain, there is thunder and lightning!

We have had our share of extreme humidity, rain, cold & hot temperatures. People who have lived here their whole lives have never seen anything like it.

I wonder what this winter will bring!?
