I'm ready for some dry weather. Back to back tornado warning and torential rains have left everything soaked. Had to run my wife to a "Prompt Care" for a nose bleed and one of the nurses witnessed the back window of her mini-van blow out and shatter.

You watch, come July and/or August and we'll be wishing for rain.

Hope everyone else out there is doing okay weather wise. Sure not much fun going to an interior room (Prompt Care) or basement (boys still at home).

Take care everyone.

((((DB)))) ~ I got to see the HUGE rains in IA first-hand this weekend -- and the hail too. I hope it stops for you all -- too many lakes and not enough land right now. :)

Raining again here today. It was a nice holiday weekend till today. Rest of the week is spose to be like this, but nothing like what others are experiencing. Seems a typical spring for us in Pa. No floods or tornado watches and such. I wish you all well and things to dry out or wet up as the case may be...real soon!

Know what you mean DB :(

And you are right, come July we will be wishing for rain. It appears that you have been getting what has been floating east out of Iowa. Stay safe...and dry!

We had over 90 events in Central Illinois yesterday. An event is an action such as hail or trees blowen down or flash floods or tornados. Was a fun day, not.

Whenever I get really sick of all the dreary, drizzly weather we've been getting, I remember to be thankful that it doesn't come with tornados!

It's not even that far into June, and already the rain is disappearing here. It was supposed to rain for the past 4 days straight, and we got 2 bout's of sprinkles instead.

I'd much prefer to get rain just about daily through out the summer, though, because come July, our grass is brown, and the flowers are dead.

Yup, Sunday nite we had to get the boys up to make the run to the basement...turned out to be a false alarm, but since '98, we take those tornado warnings very seriously here...

A bit like our Cyclone Watches.

It's raining here almost a month after the official Dry started.

We usually get at least 1 good tornado in, but I've been lucky. I've never been close to one, or actually seen one. They've touched down in our area 3 or 4 times in the past few years, but always at least a dozen or so miles from where ever I am.

Probably a good thing now, cuse where we are now has no basement. We'd be crammed into either the bathroom, or the pantry... it's a tossup- food or a toilet? ;)
