Wow, KatDaddy... great video. Just so ya know, when I said that I had heavy rain, it wasn't THAT heavy! You're right, that looked like Allison type rains... coming down in sheets. Deja-vu.

My God! How long did that last? As someone said in the video it looked like you were in a hurricane or a strong tropical storm.

Ewww. Nobody wants to flood and when it rains a whole lot, it can get old, but I couldn't live in a place like that. I like my rain and thunderstorms too much.

Main reason why I don't think I could ever live in southern California or Arizona! I love our summer storm season which is right around the corner.
