This afternoon, we experienced one of the strongest storms in a long time. Heavy rain, hail, thunder, and lightening, which had Sophie cowering on her bed under all the blankets.
Unfortunately, we met the storm on the drive home from Gary’s parents house; we made it home safely through the flooded streets with the car pelted with hailstones (no damage to the car, thank God).
We’ve had over 2 inches of rain, with about 1 1/2 inches falling in the span of 30 minutes.
The weather is meant to clear tomorrow so perhaps the water level in the stream and pond will start to go down.
That is a lot of rain. Hope all is well. Floods are never fun.
