Still raining about 3 out of 4 days lately here, and temps in the 70's. Nice for Oklahoma. Today I drove down highway 71 and it was carrying about a rivers worth of water. Pretty amazing amount of moisture since last summer.

Speaking of a "rivers worth of water" check out this forecast from the NHC. I am beginning to subscribe to the low solar cloud seeding theory.

It looks like the rain/showers cycle has finally broken in my area. Check out the cloud cover over the entire continent:
Australia is just regular stralia that's been gold-plated.
Incredibly violent storm headed down adriatic this evening, at its peak a 200 km expanse had 600 strikes/minute. (Only cloud to ground are registered by detection system...)
That would be a VERY busy minute for the whole of Europe!!
Mostly the strikes were at sea, be interested in any reports trow

Observed last evening via web cams however.....continuous flashes and many bolts over hvar..
if there yours and you treat them well you will have no problems with them but god help the fool that try's to break in ...lol what you read about life span .. hmm I've seen some that are 10ys old it's how you feed them and when ... they need quiet time an hr each side of a meal .. and no more than 2 hrs exercise a day ..
What does it matter now if men believe or no?
What is to come will come. And soon you too will stand aside,

"New Orleans Faces Catastrophic Flooding Ahead of Possible Tropical Storm
Would-be Tropical Storm Barry is still a day or more away from forming, let alone making landfall. But the developing system’s impacts are already being felt on Wednesday morning in New Orleans.
Residents of the Big Easy woke up to tornadoes and water spouts touching down in the city and on Lake Pontchartrain, and to heavy rain. The National Weather Service also issued a flash flood emergency—the most severe form of warning—for the city, as well as watches along portions of the Louisiana Gulf Coast as trains of thunderstorms rippled over the area.

Actually, I tried to get to work, made it about three blocks, and took refuge in a raised parking lot for about two hours until the rain stopped and the pumps caught up. They say 7" of rain 3 hours. Pumps handle 1" the first hour of a storm, 1/2" each hour after that. Do the math and you'll see most of the streets in the city were flooded for hours. See my post on hurricane season thread to understand the very real possibility of a catastrophic flood in New Orleans on Saturday.
