Thank You (NOT) Tennessee Williams

I don't have the cat but I most definitely have the hot tin roof.  And if I had a slip, I would most certainly go around in it, but not to the same effect as The Liz.

So I did a little research, cause I miss it and I can, and found out that all this drought, flooding, drought in the nation is caused by...... la nada.   NOTHING?  We all know about El nino, and La nina and the trouble they cause, but this year the pacific is neither too hot or too cold but just right.  Except there is no just right. Apparently, having normal (??) temperatures of the water in the Pacific causes the jet stream to go where it wants, ergo creating havoc with flooding in areas and drought in some areas, and tornados in many areas.  So it doesn't matter if the porridge is too hot or too cold or just right.  Goldilocks still gets eaten by the bears.

La Nada

Ain't science wonderful?

I check doppler everyday and it is always raining on the other side of the I 95 corridor, but nothing to the east.  Isolated thunderstorms are predicted here but it must be so isolated that they are raining over someone's head.

unfortunately, not me

Finally, after about 2 hours of hearing thunder all around, we got some rain yesterday evening

About an eighth of an inch, but I'm not complaining.  It was nice just to hear the sound of rain.

Rain, Rain, Stay Stay Stay
And come again another day
To make my garden pay pay pay

And, remember, all about the chickens.

Here's the teens, or as I now call them, the buppies.
