It's Raining Again...

These pictures are from one of the major storms we have had this summer.  I posted about it here (you know, the post where I spelled 'summer' wrong - oh well).  Ironic as it may be, as I type we are in the midst of another severe thunderstorm "watch" right now, and I have heard the skies rumbling from time to time.

The view from my kitchen window.  Through all the rain it is difficult to tell that our car, the back alley, a park and a school are in plain sight.

One of the neighborhood boys.  His umbrella didn't stand a chance against those winds and it wasn't that bad on our end of town...

The streets flooded immediately with over worked storm drains hardly able to accept the torrents of water that came down.

Here's the building that is about a block down from our church.  We ended up with part of this roof and a door from somewhere on our parking lot due to the plow winds (I believe some people call them straight winds).
