Rain!

Tropical depression Barry rolled through the Tampa Bay area on Saturday bringing much needed rain. Rain was welcomed in drought stricken Florida and Georgia where there were recent wildfires.

I am happy to see the rain. My yard needed a drenching and the lake behind my house was a little low. The current drought should end if we see as many hurricanes as predicted by the National Hurricane Center. They are predicting 17 named storms for the 2007 hurricane season. However, keep in mind there were many storms predicted last year but we had very few.

It's funny how I hear people complain about the drought conditions and then sometime in July they will start complaining about how much it rains. ;-)
