Noah? i think it may be time to break out the ark...

doppler radar from 846am today Posted by Hello


hafta love when it's raining so hard outside that when you stand on your screen porch, you can't even see your own car sitting at the bottom of the driveway. however a completely viable excuse for being late to work during the rainy season (and yes there *are* 4 seasons in FL: Perfect; Hot & Rainy Like a Tropical Rainforest; Full-Blown Hurricane Season; and 40-Degrees Which Floridians Consider Freezing Our Asses Off): "i'm sorry i'm late, i had to wait for a break in the torrential downpour to attempt getting to my car only soaked as opposed to totally drowned" or "i apologize for not getting here on time--i had to pull over & wait out a heavy band of rain because i could no longer see through my windshield, made completely obsolete by the sheet of cascading precipitatation that even my windshield wipers on the so-fast-they-look-like-they-might-fly-off setting could not clear it away for so much as partial visibility".

i'm not complaining. we need the rain badly. just ask my poor parched yard (aka the weed garden lol) how happy it is to not be fruitlessly attempting to suck any last drops of water from the ground. i just hope this is merely an indication of another normal rainy season keeping us from drought & water-shortage & wild fires...NOT a precursor of the impending *scary horror movie music playing here* hurricane season bearing down upon us with an opening day of...tomorrow. *gulp*
