Florida reached the peak of hurricane season
on Thursday. Thankfully, hurricane predictions
have been way off this summer--not to say it
still couldn't be a possibility. Our worst hurricanes
have occurred in mid September-October.
Every summer, Tom cringes at the thought
of another hurricane season when the predictions
are revealed by the National Hurricane Center.
He says that I can’t bury my head in the sand about
the possibility of still getting one this season.
I don’t think about it so much.
What’s scarier are the heavy downpours we get
sometimes, like yesterday.
Naples got 2” of rain and the thunderstorms were
shattering. I’d met up with a gal friend for a late lunch
and became stranded at her place.
Electricity flickered for hours until 9:00 p.m.
when the storm let up a bit.
By the time I got home safely, I’d passed
by three severe accidents.
The back yard is a pond, teeming with tadpoles.
The woods are noisy with cicadas and frogs.

It's raining here too. Yesterday all day and now it's kind of a misty rain. Glad things with you are okay. I miss tadpoles. We used to catch them all the time.
Sounds like Scotland with all the rain, but thankfully we don't get hurricanes.
