Basement Flooding

 Someone I know had their basement flood last night because of severe rain.

I had somehow managed to avoid the big rain’s yesterday.  In Killarney, the rain was more menacing than actually torrential.

I did see lightning against the back drop of a blue sky.  It was strange to behold:  the lightning looked like the electric charges you would see in a static globe: the one you would see in a science museum.  

Saturday 6:24 AM

 The crummy weather continues, just in time for the May long.  First, it was sunny and a little too warm.  Then, it was annoyingly windy for nearly two days.  There was a lot of dust about and damaged things flying everywhere.  My cap was blown off my head a few times.  The wind, its strength and duration had never be seen before, I overheard.  Now, it has rained and will probably continue to rain the rest of the long weekend.  Wonderful!
