My phone just got one of those "jump through your ass" alerts [View all]

for a flash flood warning due to tropical storm Debby. I'm in upstate NY.

I hate tropical storms. We got flooded in 2011 due to tropical storm Lee stalling over us for a few days. It caused a lot of trauma, and it took about a year of 14 hour days to recover.

If you're in a flood zone, please be wary. Respect the water, and don't try to drive through it, no matter how safe you think it is.
