Coffee anyone ?

[Baymule]

80 degrees yesterday, broke a couple of records for temperatures this time of year, going to 80 again today. Cold front and a lot of rain coming in.

Coffee is ready!

Our portion of that rainmaker is suppose to be here later this evening and depending on location here and track of the system thru....we could be between 3-7" by Sat....4 days of water. I am thankful it is liquid and the temps are up some, but such warm temps this time of year brings with it severe weather....we have a history of tornados in the area. They are not predicting a major outbreak, but it can change very rapidly. Hope all stays safe and enjoys the rest as the outside work will be put on hold for a bit....

They're predicting street flooding in the Houston area also. GEEZE - can we just get a break? Like maybe until November?

I'm feeling sorry for you folks dealing with all that rain; having dealt with spells where it felt like I was living under a fire hose, I feel your pain. The rain that was predicted for here turned out to be a few sprinkles, so we are a lot drier than I feared we'd be - there are places in the horses' pens that aren't 3" deep in mud!

What fun would that be, you would miss the entire hurricane season!

We are getting about 1" of rain today. The only problem with that is we have some snow and ice left, the ground is frozen, and will be for another month, so the rain runs on the surface. It will get icy when the temp drops below freezing again late tomorrow night just as the rain stops.

I'll bet you can hardly wait.

DW is worried the river up in Swanton will ice jam and overflow again. She's not alone, the state has already told people that were affected the last time to get out of their houses starting tonight. She does need to know if the road gets closed because it is 35 miles to work whether she goes north (through Swanton) or south. It is a lot longer if she gets up to the river in Swanton and finds out she needs to turn around and go south instead.

@Bruce, are you safe where your home is located?

My thermostat is broken. It is 64 F today, and it feels ungodly hot to me.

A fresh afternoon pot has been brewed.

Very safe, no rivers near here. Only danger will be rain freezing where we have to walk. I have sand and wood stove ash for that.

ice is so bad. Hope you don't get any
