[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m in NW Connecticut and we are supposed to get almost 5” of rain today and 4 tomorrow. Insane![/quote]

- Del Ray, where we got 5 inches in one hour. [/quote]

It’s definitely a competition. I guess I should have told my youngest daughter to shaddap and go back to sleep because it was…worse in Del Ray?

I don't mean to make it into a competition, but it got really tiring a week ago when people were constantly posting about how SOME homes in Del Ray flooded, and they don't know how people could live in a place like this with rivers, etc, but having zero idea of just how much torrential the rain was in such a short period of time.

And I guarantee the same people sh!tting on Del Ray experiencing flooding are the same people who are now like: "omg, so much rain!" 2" in an hour, or 4-5" in a day is nothing. Laughably nothing.

That said I sincerely hope everyone and their home is safe and without damage. [/quote]

Well, I certainly wasn’t one of the ones saying that. And “laughably nothing,” by your standards, can indeed do damage. The last bad storm we had here in Crofton, there wasn’t that much rain, but the winds whipped through and took down many trees, including one going across my neighbors’ long, shared driveway, and a few near our school. I’m glad no one was hurt. Someone easily could have been. Someone easily could be later today, if there are more storms.

My friends in Hyattsville and Elliott City might have some thoughts about your flooding and damage. See how it’s all relative? [/quote]
