Aurora is anticipated tonight. Check it out on the thread I posted - hopefully the overcast will lift before sunset...

Rain and flooding. Many people are tea, er uh sandbagging. You would think that with a big lake nearby, the rivers could flow there, but no! They run parallel to the lake and away hundreds of miles to the Mississippi river. Give me a break. What good is it to have a stinkin' lake nearby? One of the largest fresh water lakes in the world. Worthless.
Places 100 miles away I have to drive 200 miles to get there. It sucks. But it doesn't suck any of our rain water. That is all outsourced to the Gulf of Mexico.
