When I left for work Monday morning, it wasn’t even raining in Yukon. By the time the kids and I got to work, it was pouring down. By the time I went to lunch, the roads leading out of work looked like this:
On Monday, we got around 9″ of rain, which is usually what we get for the entire month of June. Roads were closed, businesses and houses were flooded, and people were rescued. Fortunately, none of that seemed to happen in my area. I drove to work, got out for lunch, and drove home with no problems, other than having to take it slow through a couple of spots of deep water.
It rained Monday night too, but in true Oklahoma fashion, the sun was out in full force yesterday. Today we get the best of both worlds; a high of 92 (with a heat index of over 100) and a 20% chance of rain.
You have to admit Oklahoma gives us the full spectrum of weather. Crazy, but I love it. I wouldn’t live anywhere else. :-)
We’re almost getting the same stuff here in Cincinnati. I think it lightens up a bit before it gets here, but the past couple days have been rough.
