Anybody else getting the light show of the century?

We foolishly had a metal roof put on 12 years ago when we remodeled. Damn thing has leaked every year despite having folks “fix” it. Awoke this morning to 3 leaks. If any trash is in the gutters it backs up and causes leaks.

Last time I was there on Business, it was August and 119 degrees...but hey, it was a dry heat.

August is fine. If I remember, June/July is monsoon season.

Correct. If I recall, each subdivision has a huge retention pond that is dry and green with grass 10 months out of the year, then when it pours during monsoon season, they are turned into lakes.

I’m in Locust Grove. Sat out on my covered front porch from 2300-0100. What a show! Powerful and beautiful to see. Rattled the house all night.

Saw Griffin got 6 " of rain yesterday, and expecting 5" today!

I had to drive from Locust Grove to Woodstock this morning. Rain, lightning like crazy, and a bazillion idiots on the highway at either 5mph, or 105mph.....all with their hazard lights on.
The thunder was rattling the house last night.

wtf? if it's bad enough for 4 way flashers then why don't they get off the road?

I appreciate the "flashers" because they're signalling you to be extra cautious when passing them as they do NOT know how to drive in a rainstorm.

Just happy I got my gutters cleaned out this past weekend before these Spring storms
