Default OT- Nasty Weather

Just got my cable and internet back up from the big thunder
boomer's we've been having in Ohio. The town is basically flooded
but the water is going down a bit now. We lost electric for
a good while, thank goodness for the generator.

People lost a bunch of boats to the flood at the rocky river
marina's. What a mess.

Anyone else get the monsoon?

Well, we finally got some rain.... and some severe thunderstorms, and
some hail, and some flooding, and some tornadoes. Like the saying
goes, "Be careful what you wish for".

That's it, there never seems to be a happy medium. This May will
go down as the most rain for Medina, we've had about 6 inches
since weds night on top of saturated ground.

Saw some of that nasty weather you had on the news, some people were not
very lucky, glad you're OK.

Thanks for the kind words, JJ. I feel bad for the homes lost
and the farmers crops. It's getting ready to thunderstorm here
again..ugh

Thanks Shark, so far so good. Here's a pic of that rocky
river marina I was talking about.

Boy, glad I don't live in natural disaster country
anymore. I'd still take an earthquake once every hundred
years, good thing I don't live in earthquake country either.

I don't live in natural disaster country either, but last night we had our
first tornado warning in my memory. I haven't seen a storm like that in a
*looooong* time. The whole sky was lit up almost continuously with
lightning and there was a torrential downpour.

A lot of folks lost power; it wasn't pretty. I shut down the pc and pulled
the phone line from the dsl modem. Lost the satellite TV a few times as
well (and there is a new 3 head dish up there with signal strengths 50%
higher than when the system was first installed, but still lost the signal).

It is overcast now and hasn't rained in over 12 hours. Still quite a bit of
standing water in the street.


Best regards from Rochester, NY
Jim
