Might extinguish some of the fires!!! :) The way it's pouring down at times and doesn't stop I was thinking if it rained like that in biblical times, during 40 days and 40 nights, no wonder the earth went under.....

Blowing snow and more blowing snow, not enough to help our drought situation.
Guess I'll watch as it all blows by...
South of us is really getting hammered today:( Free quilt day... :)
First day of Spring is 22 days away.:D

That is too funnny. We have had high winds for 3 straight days. Have a large metal star on the side of house & had to go out at 4 am this morning because it was banging so loud. Didn't you have these bad rains a couple of years ago?

Yes, we had floods last year and the year before. Often it's too dry for months and lots of shrubs, trees, plants die in my garden and then this massive rain comes and THE WEEDS grow like mad..... :(

Only thing that makes me happy is I know my well will not go dry any time soon. I keep telling myself rain is a good thing.

Gee! I hope somewhere in the world someone is having great weather. I asked my SIL in Cairns if they had grown webbed feet after cyclone Oswald. Her answer- Yeah and fins too. We can laugh but the people of Bundaberg & Gympie aren't laughing. Our hearts go out to them. I'm sure some of them can't take much more.

We had a lot of rain yesterday...It came half way up in my yard....Water soaks in fast but since we are in the low country it does not take much for us to flood....Sunny and 64 degrees today....
