My best friend in Southern NH, just across the border from Haverhill MA, reports she had nearly two feet of water in her basement yesterday -- the fire department had to come pump her out, and dug a bunch of drainage trenches around her property. But the rain's still falling and her cellar's still filling, and it looks like no respite till tomorrow, at the earliest.

Worst flooding there since 1936, and there's been a lot of property damage. Not a good situation at all...

Well, a typhoon was supposed to hit Taiwan, but it skewed off (probably to ambush Japan or something). It has been significantly cooler and drizzling even on the other side of the planet...

I am setting in Ray's at 26th & Lexington in New york having two slices of pepperoni and it's raining big time.

The British chick on my NPR station keeps saying "This is English weatha".

I'm seeing partly cloudy tomorrow and then rain through till next Wednesday. That's what, 2 weeks straight?

 

[Tin Pan Sally]

What is this "rain" you all speak of?

Where I am it's just rain rain rain but no significant flooding like 30 miles south of me.

I saw someone's yard sprinklers on yesterday as I pumped gas in the pouring rain. [huh]

While there may not be floods in Portland, I think many people are going batty from lack of sun! Ok, maybe just me...

 

[LizzieMaine]

Nope, not just you. I can feel Seasonal Affective Disorder closing in on me even as we speak. No more sunshine expected here till Sunday at the earliest...

lol no, it isn't always raining! this is a bit unusual for this time of year around here...usually it doesn't get into the 90's until late June....the hottest I have seen it get here in the summer was 110degrees, was not fun at all. The good thing about this kind of weather is, boating season has started earlier, wooohoooo!!!

Gee, sorry to hear about all the rain MK. Better now then over the weekend!

And, is it just me, or do we seem to have alot more Bostonian/New Englanders on here now?

We really should plan some kind of thing or something.

THE SUN IS OUT!!!

[LizzieMaine]

It's gonna swerve north, it's gonna swerve north, it's gonna swerve north...

(repeat mantra until it, you know, swerves north!)

 

[mysterygal]

lol hey, it's worth a try! actually, my flowers would probably like some rainfall but can't beat sitting out on the porch with a book, or in my case, my laptop, kids running through the sprinkler *crosses fingers* just one more day of this!

 

[Dalexs]

Hey, thats kinda funny. When I first posted that pic, the storm was still over the northern part of New York and now it has swerved north over New England!
The image must be updating automatically from TWC. Kinda cool!
