Well, the first official hurricane to hit the Gulf coast in 2007 lands right in my area. Fancy that, we didn't even know there was a hurricane coming! Since it wasn't declared a hurricane until the middle of the night and it was only declared a tropical storm yesterday. If I sound a little bitter well I am. Humberto is standing in the way of some very big plans we had for this weekend.
Besides the inconvienience we are experiencing we are currently just getting rain. They have called off school for most of the area and are prediciting localized flooding. My hubby is supposed to be finishing a roof today. It may be getting draped in a lovely blue tarp today instead.
I plan on taking some pictures once it is daylight. While our house doesn't flood, our ditch in our front yard does. If we get enough rain it creates a nice lake effect and our street has flooded before.
Please pray that this storms dissaptes quickly and let the rain head out to where others need it. We certainley don't. |
