MO storms

[mamabear]

Last night we had another bad storm here. went to Cape to do some errands, when I came out of store, the weather was lookin pretty wicked, so I jumped in my car & sped home (an hour away) to try & beat the storm. I arrived home with just time to get a flashlight, round the animals up & made a mad dash for the basement. I love to play in storms, & have a hard time not going out to see what there is to see. but not this time!! the winds were making the trees do the limbo. we had over 4 in. rain in 45 min. of course lost power, but I'm always prepared for that. came back on around 9 this morn. much faster than I expected (Yay line men!) trees in road, leaks both upstairs & down, (first in the 12 yrs I've lived here) all I can say, is I can't imagine what being in a hurricane is like. I am thankful to still have my home, & no injuries. Hope others can say the same.

We're expecting storms all day today. Already had 2 quick downpours, first last just over a minute and probably dumped a 1/4", the second lasted a good deal longer and had highway traffic down to 15mph the roads were rivers. Best part is the worst is still to come Right now it's sunny and hot like nothing ever happened

They may have called the weather right

Let's hear it for the Jersey weather people, they got 1 right in a row

Glad you made it home alright. We only had a little wind and rain here. The temperature is awesome compared to those 100's.
