Heavy rain

Another holiday, another flood. Looks like. Heavy rain started around 2 a.m. and has continued off and on. Our goofy gutters are overwhelmed, as usual. I expect to see the back forty’s waterfall materialize before long. Good thing the sandbags are still in place from Halloween. A strong El Nino will prompt that.

At least it will take Mr. B.’s mind off the Luby’s Thanksgiving disaster. Food wasn’t very good. Like a school lunchroom, Mr. B. said, and you can imagine how a high schooler feels about school lunchrooms. Its only virtue was that it was cheap and the pie was good. For Xmas, it will be Threadgill’s for sure.

Thunderstorms moving in

So far the weather warriors’ radar is all greens and yellows so, hopefully, that artillery-like thunder rumbling through now and then won’t get much worse. We are forecast to get heavy rain overnight, today and tonight, and are under a flash flood watch. Nice that the temp is in the 50s. Won’t be any snow or ice.
