Well, it didn't really rain all summer and we were something 14 inches behind in rainfall and in a drought. Not any more. It's rained for the last 8 days or so and we've had upwards of 14 inches in that time. Supposed to rain the rest of the night and maybe into tomorrow morning before it clears. I heard we're going to get an inch an hour for some time tonight.
One good thing, the ground that was like concrete is going to be like butter!!! Depending on when it clears, I'm going to try to hit my church again; the area around the 1827 Quaker meeting house / cemetary. Got a good negative tide this weekend too... maybe I'll hit the beach.
The other good thing is I had my poor excuse of a lawn super seeded two weeks ago. Got a lot of new growth with all this rain
One bad thing... drip, drip, drip. The water's getting under the roof fan's flashing but it's not too bad considering how hard it's raining. I'll have to get on the roof tomorrow when it stops and seal around the flashing. Could be worse. A lot of areas in New Jersey (in a state of emergency) and Connecticut are getting flooded out by swollen rivers. Dams will be overflowing too. Praise God I'm home and high and dry
