Hi Bill, To make you feel a bit better, Friday in Connecticut was a washout. Pouring rain; heavy thunderstorms; and the newspapers even talked of a mini-tornado in our area (Glastonbury). We lost power for 6 hours.
Saturday was much better. At noon I couldn't see across the street the rain was coming down so hard. The papers reported for a time it was 1" per hour of rain! Thunder and lightning; high winds. Luckily we didn't loose power a second time (I had just finished resetting all the clocks) All traffic on I-84 came to a complete stop. The rain was so heavy that visibility was 0! Over in Hartford, on Franklin avenue Saturday, the drains couldn't handle the water volume so cars got stranded in the road (a main artery) and police rescued people from their cars using - now get this - a boat! The newspaper accounts said at one spot water was up to the windows of the cars................! T'weren't good sailing weather! So much for Saturday But today is gorgeous, while everyone cleans up the debris and damage from the past two days; dries out their cellars; and cuts up the fallen tree limbs! Happy sailing!
