After a two year drought that had everone thinking dust bowl, the rain has come.  Last week we were 7 inches ahead for the year.  I really don't remember seeing this much prolonged rain, ever.  Water drains behind Greer when it rains and it's turning into a swamp.  The toads have moved in, so the alligators can't be to far away.

We've gotten lucky a couple times though.  We moved on the 16th and didn't get rained on.  Yesterday it didn't rain on the pride parade.  I guess that's one good thing about them splitting the festival and parade between two weekends.  At least the parade was dry.

The seven day forcast has been an adventure.  They'll show a 10% to 30% chance for every day and then suddenly bounce it up to 70%.  Thing is its raining on those 10% days too.  The disaster monger in me keeps thinks, 'just one more good rain and it will flood. mu ma ha ha ha" Seriously though, the ground is soaked and the rivers and lakes are full.  We've already had days they've had to close streets.

40% today, 60% tomarrow, then 70%, 50%, 40% and 30%.

The other weird things is that it is coming from every direction.  The last few days the storms have been coming straight out of the East and tuning North when they get to the city.  Last week the were coming out of the South and the week before out of the North.

At least MySpace is nice and dry.
