I hope it quits soon and moves on. We could handle it in Mississippi. All that rain y'all got over there skipped us somehow. We've gotten rain this summer, so we don't really need it, but it wouldn't hurt us. Best of luck, and hope y'all don't have any storms this season.

So many hit so hard.

Few were flooded out here compared to many places.

Damage has been limited here but the puddles are getting bigger and it could get worse.

Don't feel guilty, after days and days and days (and nights) of rain, everyone is complaining about it. Doesn't mean you don't care about others.
