Last Thursday night we got rain--a lot of rain.
More rain than was needed at one time, especially following a drought.
It rained--medium heavy--for about 9 hours. I guess it was pretty much all of the rain that we had not gotten for the last two months.
I heard that the southern parts of Korea were hit pretty hard with agricultural damage due to flooding.
Sigh. I've been reading the weather news about the U.S. and and other parts of the world; lately it seems like it is one extreme or another.
Maybe it's because of:
A. Global warming (thanks, industrialized nations!)
B. President Assad of Syria killing off 16,000 of his people in an effort to retain power. (Russia and China: thanks for stepping up!)
C. Millions of Americans buying 'Big Gulp' sodas; the resulting mass carbonation asphyxiates Mother Nature, and the resulting loss of control unleashes cataclysmic forces.
D. Some other factor.
