[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1033625, member: 20599"] I realize the grass (rain cloud?) is always greener on the other side of the fence, but what the Maine poster is saying up here in the NE is very true. Here in upstate NY, we have our county and most of the surrounding ones declared national disaster areas at the moment. We've had people washed away, houses and businesses destroyed, entire hillsides come crashing down, pavement and parking lots and sidewalks buckled when water underground burst through them, streets become rivers...The National Guard and Red Cross are working in our area. Many of the residents lost everything in the floods of 2006 (and we've gotten hammered by Irene and Sandy the past 2 summers as well). The weather here has gotten very wacky over the past few years. We don't seem to get what I used to think of as "normal" weather--some rain, some clear days....It's either months of no rain, or weeks and weeks of absolute deluge. We have had storms and downpours every day, with no let-up in sight. Many areas have been evac'd. But I agree--within reason, I still prefer this to drought. Ask me again in a week though! (and luckily we live up high, or I'm sure I'd be saying to bring on the drought!) [/QUOTE]
