Default [IBC] blah!

Since February 22, I have recorded 17.45 inches of rain in

the
gage in front of my house, 4 of them in the last 24 hours.

The
"official" weather measurement for Tallahassee (about 25

miles to
the south of me) is 9.8 inches. We have had TWO days without
rain in that period -- TWO! We've probably seen the sun for

a
total of 20 minutes. Two of the three roads to my place are
under water. My driveway is impassable up the hill to the

house.
The barn is flooded.


Just be thankful you're not in an area that gets snow. Up

here, that much moisture
would translate into 17.45 FEET of snow.


Oh, I am thankful. If we got snow, I'd be somewhere else!

Maybe it only takes the right kind of complaint (or whiney-ness)
but there's actually a bit of blue showing in the sky this
evening and tomorrow's rain likelihood is 20%. The squeaky wheel
.. . . ?
