Re: This is summer?

I'm telling ya...we are supposed to get 4-5 inches of rain today and
tomorrow. That's over 10 inches in less than 5 days. Our creeks and
rivers are overflowing and flooding homes. It's been a LONG time since
I've seen rain like this in Oklahoma. I've seen it in New Orleans, but
not here. Only once have I seen it like this and it was BAD..(1982-83 -
can't remember) my sister lost a friend who was trapped in her car and
drowned. Very sad. I hate to complain about rain because the last 2
summers we had water rationing and drought...but this is getting crazy.
