Sunday Afternoon

Sunday afternoon at 3:00 and everyone had decamped.  It's been raining here all day.  Little severe thunderstorms that drench us with fury, then pass off to the north, leaving everything hot and humid till an hour later, we get another.  We've been rained on four times since noon.

That's our radar map this afternoon, with a strong southerly flow.  Storms building to the south, washing across us heading north and dropping water at a monumental rate.  T here's nothing to be done in the yard, because about the time you get started, the rain drives you indoors.

This is the wettest May that I can ever recall.  I'll be glad when we get into a more normal weather pattern.  Right now, we're in the rainy season.

Milady and I will be celebrating Memorial Day tomorrow, in our own way.  This will be the first Memorial Day in several years where we're both off, and we're going to slip off and have some fun.
