top o' the mornin'®
I don't know if it's the tail end of Gustav or what, but the weather finally broke here overnight - clouds and rain expected for the next couple days, to the relief of many whose lawns and gardens were dying of thirst. I ran into one of the "scattered showers" that was forecast for today as I was walking from the bus stop to my office. I was in the "twlight zone" - it would have taken longer for me to get my unbrella out of my backpack than it would have to get to the nearest cover, and the rain was coming down hard enough to give me a fair soaking before I reached the awning outside the building. So I'm sitting here in damp clothing. But I'm glad for the rain.
