It's Fookin rainin!
One of the funny things about Louisiana is it's rain patterns. Being from Seattle, i'm used to constatant drizzle. Light rain that continues for weeks on end. Here in Louisiana, we get about 67,000 gallons in just a couple of hours and then it's sunny again.
Behind my apartment is a runoff coulee where the storm drains empty into. I think it's about 10 feet deep. About 2 hours ago the water in it was MAYBE an inch deep. Now? see for yourself :wink: http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/2...00012ik.th.jpghttp://img151.imageshack.us/img151/5...00025gt.th.jpg |
