Rain, Rain, and more.......

Almost three inches of rain here since last night. And a lot before that! Checked the camper and had some water entry through one of the refrigerator vents which I had previously fixed with angles, but some got blown in anyway. Taped plastic over the vents and have a fan inside blowing over the affected area. Not nearly as bad as it was prior to installing the 1/2 inch angles. Sure would like to send this moisture to the mid-west! They need it.

Sorry to hear of your troubles, but you're exactly right. Had 60+mph wind gusts again earlier this week and only go .2 of an inch. We need serious rain badly.

Up until yesterday we along with many other cities in the area had 15 to 17 days of it rained every day. Many areas are flooded still. We are high and dry. Back yard is a marsh.

Same feelings here in Nashville about all of the rain. We are soaking and the ground can't hold anymore. Also wish we could send some of it out west. If you guys send us some "Buckets" we would be happy to fill them and send them back to you.

We've been in Montgomery, Alabama for the past five days and it has rained everyday, and should continue for the next three out of five days. It's rained two inches at a whack.

Worst thing is the that the soil is saturated and this red Alabama dirt makes for a great mire/muck/mud. Stains everything. Yuk!

We have NOT had rain for two entire days. The back yard is still wet but we thrashed it down today. Tried to do my neighbors back yard and we left grooves in the mud. Me and the tractor weigh in at about 800lbs GCW. so I guess that was not a real good idea.
