It's been thunderstorming since Monday, with a brief, 10 hour patch of sunshineyness yesterday. Otherwise? We've received 14 1/2 inches of rain since Monday night. 

14 1/2. 

There's mudslides happening, trees flying everywhere, streets blocked by muds, railroad tracks washed away, floating cars, the Mississippi has flooded. Floating houses and propane tanks.  

Oh and let's not forget the 70+ mph wind gusts with the 50 mph sustained winds.

It's really quite fun.  

Probably because neither my car nor my house are floating.  

Now pardon me while I go put on my waders so I can get to work.

ETA: Everyone needs a cute picture of my kitten:

Oh wow. If you think that was enjoyable, the prior night, I got to drive through the thing (granted, that was before the small cells of hail and such arrived yesterday). Approaching it from the north side of the storm was absolutely beautiful as lightning arced through the sky and made the most beautiful 4:00am driving ever.

Holy crap, that is a shitload of rain! I clearly haven't been watching the news (only CSPAN, which does not tell me about mundane things like rain and stuff).... how is it going out there today?

If you need to be heli-lifted out, you give me a call. I get right on it.
