I miss summer rain, hardly EVER get any in CA. I love the rain; even if it has been going on for days or weeks. This was a quick cloud burst and you can see the sun shining through the rain drops in the pick. After about 10 minutes it was blues sky and everything smelled fresh! |

Meanwhile in SW Florida a KIA was spotted floating down what was once called "Fowler Street" after today's afternoon deluge.

Meanwhile in SW Florida a KIA was spotted floating down what was once called "Fowler Street" after today's afternoon deluge. In my 30+ years here, I have only experienced flooding one time. About 25 years ago, just off the beach there was a water spout and it fed a huge cloud that drifted over the land towards us. Then the cloud let go and the storm drains could not handle it; we had manhole covers with geysers spouting 6 foot high fountains in the middle of the streets! We are on the high ground so we were not severely stressed but along the seashore and tourist area, all the water from the cloud and from above flooded the low lying areas to a depth of up to 12 feet! A couple of my favourite beach restaurant/bars were completely submerged and it took almost 6 months to restore the ones that had the resources. I still remember the pics on the news of cars with water almost over the roof with the wipers running crazy! It is going to get worse unless the \us government acknowledges global warming  |

The US Government isn't the only one that refuses to acknowledge climate change - Australia's governments have been arguing over it for years, but so far haven't put in place any sort of policy to genuinely reduce carbon emissions. Well, we had a carbon price/trading scheme for a bit until the next government conservative government abolished it.

...and possibly racist.
