Lone Line of Rain

That's one long line of thunderstorms across the mid-section of the United States! Yesterday's storms blossomed in the Midwest and then eventually grew to span from Texas to Michigan! In our neck of the woods, it was mostly a rain event dumping around 3" of rain in a short period of time. Our rain gutters couldn't keep up and there were lakes and rivers in the yard. It's fascinating to watch it suddenly just dump a downpour of rain ... then stop ... then dump again as if someone were turning on a spicket. Now we just need some sunshine to dry out for a few days.
