A Frog Choker!
« on: August 10, 2012, 07:00:48 PM »
I turned in a significant weather report to CoCoRaHS this afternoon.  From 4:02 to 4:22 we got 1.26 inches of rain.   :shock:

It was an interesting trip in to work this evening.  Flooded roadways and trees down and such.   8-[

Yeah, we had a small river running behind the house.  I told my wife we need to consider that when we're doing the landscaping and garage building later this year (I hope).

Sounds like a spot for a pond or in-ground cistern.   ;)
