It has been raining for the last two days (or more) straight at times so hard that you can hear the rain hitting the pavement three stories up (in my office).  And it does not look like it is going to end anytime soon.  The forecast is for rain until morning so I have a feeling we will be seeing a lot of water and mud tomorrow. 

I feel for those who have already felt the pain of flood waters and I’m expecting that we will have some of the same sorrows locally when the runoff from the tributaries hit the local rain gorged rivers.  Some of the bridges we have to cross everyday have already seen some water hitting there bottoms and we will not see the cresting of the flood stages until Sunday.

I count my lucky stars that I live on top of a hill and the closest river is in a deep ravine.
