Crap. My favorite watering hole is under water. I hope Brutus is not all wet.

Yeah, I hope it goes down by october. I'm going that way in awhile and I want to chill with friends.

Texas would like to make an official request for all of your water and rain through December please. I have a 12,000 acre fire behind my house, so can you air mail it?

I ended up working from home yesterday after being stuck in suburban gridlock for 2 hours and giving up and turning around. Pretty much the whole town I work in was flooded, my turnpike exit was closed, I took back roads and every road in to the office was flooded. Today it was fine but the roads were all brown from the mud.

Damn, I saw taht on the news. That flooding is EXTREMELY widespread.

Crap, let's just hope this won't effect where I live in middle PA.

I guess praying for it hasn't worked?

Well the water is slowly going down but it looks like the bar might take awhile to be remodeled again. They had just finished re- doing the place after the last flood. Or maybe they should just move to higher ground.

Heard about the fires in Texas. Hope it burns out soon.

Its been a bad year for weather. Lets not forget everyone along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers getting flooded in May and June. It was a slower less dramatic flooding than the storm caused floods in the north east, but just as destructive.

The tornadoes like the one that destroyed so much of Joplin Mo.

The wild fires notably in Texas, and Arizona.

Record high temperatures all over the nation all summer. Even here in Az where we are used to heat, we broke records and have had over 110 days of 100degree temps.

And last- lets not forget the earthquakes either.

The last few hundred years have been a period of relatively stable weather and its predicted we are entering a stretch of more extreme storms and unusual weather patterns.

Might be time to build an ark.
