Yikes, just heard we have 1.5"-3" of rain coming in the next 3 days. Rivers were just starting to go back down too.

It was 75 and sunny here this morning, rain not supposed to show up until 3-4 this afternoon. Once again, it fooled the weather people, and arrived shortly after noon. Thunder and lightening, nice shower. Then sun back out. Now it's cloudy, supposed to have more storms this afternoon and evening, but I got all my work done outside yesterday and this morning, so it's fine with me!
Bullfrog just croaked again in the ponds. I love hearing that! He's calling all his buddies from the farm pond to get their butts to the koi/goldfish ponds! Well, he's probably only calling to the lovely lady frogs, my guess. I spotted him after the rains, and got this pic with one of my Comets in front of him.

Holy cow, a bolt of lightening and the crack of thunder at the SAME TIME! I actually screamed, and I love storms! Must have been so engrossed in reading on the internet, it scared me, but man that crack was LOUD! Not raining yet, but that bugger was right on top of me for sure. Whew! Sure don't need lightening hitting any of the few trees on my property, that's for sure.

Oh, great, just got alert on my phone storm with 50 mph winds and nickel sized hail heading my way. Then, within 5 minutes it was HERE, but thankfully no hail. Whew, sure don't want my new metal roof all dinged up first year! Rain came down hard and heavy, REAL HEAVY, but only for short period of time, then quit. Lots of strong cells out there. I'm fine with more rain, although I'll be mowing as soon as it dries up again. Just mowed on Thurs., too! But, tis the season for mowing, and this time of year, lots of rain, needs to be mowed often, rather than all at once, IMO.

Thunder going on here too and rain is just now starting up again. Not dark yet so can't see lightning.

I saw that on CNN too Sissy, spring comes quick fast and furious for you gals down there! Stay safe!!

Can't complain here, we are not below freezing and I think I might be getting slowly better. This flu was bad and yesterday I was so drained I felt like a freight train ran me over! Yesterday in the bakery, Evelyn was sick and last week others had it.. I wanted to stay home but nobody to work my shift cause everybody was either working and/or sick themselves. They are trying to hire more staff, but hard to find good workers who will work hard. Spring flu sucks! :(

So sorry to hear of the devastating weather in the south and the tragic loss of lives. Hope it gets better soon and no more deaths :(

Brightening up nicely here and can't wait till we get the higher temps they are predicting here. Supposed to be in the 80's by Wednesday
