Rain Last Night

Anyone have problems due to the rain last night? Some crazy stories about flooding on the radio, and go out by the husky or sask place if you have time, and check out the neon and the ranger or dakota in the middle of the big puddle in the parking lot!

No rain here last night, but there was lots of storm warnings on the weather channel though.

I drove home in the middle of that rain/hail storm last nite, this morning I looked for hail damage on the Louisville before leaving for work and thankfully there was none!
There`s so much water standing along some of our grid roads that any more rain that some roads maybe under water. This totally unbelievable, I`ve never ever seen this much water laying in fields and ditches everywhere!

Got the edge of the storm here. So not much fell here. My brother is over by Grandora and he said his vehicles all got hail damage. He was in the path.
Had lots of clean up at work thou yesterday. Trees down and pluggged roof drains and lots of roof leaks in the hospital. So spent the day running all over the building cleaning up damage and unplugging the drains.
Got home from work. I was pooped. crashed for 2 1/2 hours.

Wow. I hope it's a little drier when I go to Alberta in a week and a half. Especially at the campgrounds. We could use a little of your rain, I have to water the garden this week until we get some rain.

It is so wet saturated here. The water just now sits in feilds. Places where we never had water before.
At work last week had two major floods thanks to the downpours. They have to do some changes to roofing and landscaping to prevent future flooding.

More rain again tonite, looks like it was over half an inch just after supper. It was a good time to burn my big piles of trees and branches, no chance of the fire getting away tho I think it pretty well got put it out after most of the pile was burnt.

Shoot I had 3 nights of rain here and all day yesterday. It is raining now.
Shoot I only have a couple of two by fours nailed together for my ark. I think I'm in trouble.

With all this moisture. Makes me wonder about this coming winter. What are we in for this year. Lots of snow and deep freeze temps.? It looks that way to me.
