And there is a nice long rumble of thunder over downtown B'more. Prototypical spring rain right now.

I missed the rumble. I agree with your other post, looks wet around here today. Traffic later today should be awesome.

Was I complaining? It's warm(ish), and that's fine by me. I have indeed grown tired of highs that struggle to get out of the mid-50s.

If you won't, I will. Clear skies, sunshine, warm temps, and calm winds is weather also. I'll take 3 or 4 days in a row of THAT weather. Screw this Amazon River BS.

Steady rain up here and a flood watch issued until 6pm temp is 53. The rivers, creeks and streams cannot take anymore. Many roads in Frederick Co. are still closed to flooding or mud slides.

nice to see another Frederick poster here :thumbsup:

I agree with you about the rivers not being able to take much more. The Monocacy has already been over flood stage.

I took these on Saturday while driving down Rt 15 just south of Thurmont.

Just outside the frame in the last picture was a heard of cattle that got trapped in the water. the water rose so fast they couldn't make it to high ground and were up to their shoulders in the stream. last I saw they were slowly making their way to high ground. first true flash flood I have seen

We are getting really heavy rain here. One storm after another keeps rolling through. The heaviest rain, by radar, seems confined to the northern end of the county. This is the first time in my three years teaching here that I have ever been able to hear the rain on the roof over my classroom. This rain rivals what we had Saturday. I know there's going to be flooding if this continues much longer.

Thanks!

Yes the fields up here are an amazing site to see. Most of the soccer fields off of 26 are now ponds. I live down off of Ballenger Creek Pike so the fields are a bit higher. But Ballenger Creek runs just behind my neighborhood. I have yet to see how much it is over its banks.

Just had a nice flash and crack to the heavy rain that we now have. :mapstorm:
