There’s as much rain today as during Superstorm Sandy, maybe more. Sandy was the last time the water outside my house rose this high. The house stands about 20 feet or so up a small hill. It’s in no danger. But I have spent the entire morning staring out the window mesmerized by weather. Enthralled might be more accurate. Water covers the sidewalk, now covered with debris from the pond, optimistically renamed a lake in the nineteenth century.
Thank you for your close-up view of this weather event which I first heard of from my son-in-law texting me from LA asking if we had flooding happening. I live 45 miles west of Albany. It was cloudy here most of the day, but none of the small amount of predicted rain came until the middle of the night, and not much fell, so once again we lucked out. All your climate change, government shut-down thoughts intermixed with the ordinary details of day to day living are what go through my mind many times daily. It's so good to connect to kindred spirits online. Blessings and Peace, Sue
