I hate the summer!!! If you could call it that

[fergie]

This has to be the worst summer i have witnessed in my thirty years. For a month now it has been raining every day, either drizzle and low cloud or torrential downpours. Usually are summers are quite pleasant and occasionally scorchers but this year has been a total wash out. Heres some pics taken today at about 1600 hrs. I was up in the snake room and heard this almighty roll of thunder, looked out the skylight and this is what i was greeted with











These pics were taken four weeks ago and the weather hasn't improved since







Also just found out via the news that the international airport has flooded, there has been landslides along our coast road and some flooding in around the town.

Heres praying for an Indian summer

Yup, same thing here in Texas! It's rained almost every day this summer, I've never seen anything like it.
I still love your beautiful pics, though!

well in VA its been hotter than ever. 93 currently out side with blue skys but humidity is insane. we are expecting rain for the first time in a while ( had some the other day and small showers a month or two back) but its only 30% each day so i dont know what we will end up getting. sorry for the bad weather

It's like that in OK too....we had a 20 something day streak where it rained everyday. And for weeks before that it ''drizzled" but they didn't count that stuff. The last two weeks there have been some scorchers, so it's drying up a bit finally. And I found out why this town is called Stillwater....nothing here drains!! It rains, and the water just sits there. There is too much red clay for the ground to soak up much water. It hasn't been as bad here as some places, but we have had housed flood and several roads closed due to water. Weird summer....

This is a drainage ditch in my neighborhood. Normally, the kids play in it, as the water is a mere trickle that can be stepped over.

So true about the rain. This summer has stank so badly. Maybe because I need a vacation,lol
