Tropical storm massively anti-climactic. Our yard, which floods in a decent rain (we've even had water in the house from the back yard) didn't even flood at all. Not a bit. A good thing, but underwhelming.

Thanks for all your good thoughts! (I feel bad for the mayor and his minions sleeping in city hall all night at the command center--nothing to do after all)

I'm glad you didn't have a mess!

We're getting the tail end, now. The place that leaks in the basement in a big storm has started to flow, but we've got it jury-rigged so that most of the water will go down a drain. I've got a can outside as a rain gauge - weather report says three to seven inches. J. and I are hanging out at home; she's sorting through all the stuff she moved in last weekend, and I'm contemplating getting started on the adoption stuff. The rain outside is a nice sound. Hopefully the basement leak won't progress to the Chesapeake Bay smell any time soon (it does that if things get excessive).

And then Ike. I hope you avoid floods for that one, too.

My fall-out from the non-storm was my mother calling and bitching at me for not calling to check on her.

Always good to practice. Better yet to have an easy time from the storm. Looks like you may have another break coming.

Sometimes anticlimactic is a Good Thing. We've had lots and lots of rain here, but so far the inside remains dry.
