The last three or four days it has been much more humid here. Normally it is hot and dry but the humidity has shot up and there has only been a slight breeze.

After several days it was starting to get a little oppressive.

Then on Wednesday the clouds burst and it rained and rained and rained. Proper torrential rain. The lightening was amazing and thunder truly awesome. I love a good storm! The garden filled up with about 4 inches of water the roads were flooded and everything just steamed.

We have had a couple of really wet days since. Rainy season runs from mid to late April to early June. So I guess it must be rainy season now!

On my work email we just had our first Storm/Hurricane Alert fully two and a half months early! The weather trackers are following a deepening depression / storm in the mid Atlantic.At this point it poses no threat but to even have a storm identified this early is very unusual.**
