Raining cats and dogs.

It's pouring here and what gets me is these yooper drivers are more afraid of a little rain than the snow. Got behind some guy a few min ago doing 15 in a 40 with his hazards on.

we've always used the expression "it's raining pitch forks and negro babies"

It's 56 and raining at my place.
My expression is raining like a cow p!$$!ng on a flat rock.
It applies to when you have the wipers on their highest settting and still can't see through the sheet of water on the glass.

We just had enough to get the pavement wet.

Haha, so does that mean a lot?

Send some of that rain this way. We haven't had any rain in what seems like 2 weeks.

We got some good rain a week ago, but it was so dry it took hours to dry up basically.

We've been getting a few decent storms around here lately. No real damage from wind/hail, but south of us a little bit the creeks and rivers were over their banks from all the water.

Don't worry guys, we're sending it down the big stream to the rest of you

by **Westie25** » Tue Jun 19, 2012 10:53 am

Wait, where are you from?

by **MOhuntingGuy** » Tue Jun 19, 2012 10:54 am

I think he is from da nort

by **Westie25** » Tue Jun 19, 2012 10:55 am

I thought he lived in Texas. I live right next to the big stream.

Oh Yah Sure don'tcha know. We start your little stream.

I'm not from Texas. How's the old saying go, there's only 2 things that come out of Texas... :mrgreen:

Indeed Goldie. It's pretty nasty where I live. We have some lovely bends that cause some pretty crazy swirls and undertow.

by **Goldfish** » Tue Jun 19, 2012 11:06 am

Huh. It just has backwater up here that we hunt (along with all the other fair weather hunters in the metro area). Couple locks and dams, and that's about it. It's pretty nasty by the time it gets to the south side of the twin cities though, does anyone down there actually fish it, and keep the fish from it?

It stormed last night enough to knock one of our folding chairs over on the patio. I almost had to take cover

by **Westie25** » Tue Jun 19, 2012 11:08 am

Yea, you're not supposed to though. You can be cruising along at 30 and the water level will drop about a foot and then another 2-300 feet it'll come back up. Ive eaten fish out of it all my life and I'm healthy as a horse. Well see how it goes in 20 more years.

It's been raining since yesterday or maybe day before. It had been drizzling most all last night and when I left for my morning walk.
So, 3 miles into a 6 mile walk in the woods, it starts coming down like a cow pissin' on a flat rock. I have no idea when the rain will stop here.
Maybe instead of these oil pipelines we should construct a water pipeline to Colorado and Texas. From what I hear they could both use it about now.
