There was some crazy rain in Bremerton Washington this week. I don't remember exactly how much, but I think we got a couple of inches in about forty minutes. I had roughly 3/8th inch hail raining down on my car. I was able to pull under a covered gas station within about ten seconds from when it started, but I've got at least a dozen new chips in my paint. One puddle down the street from where I was hiding swallowed a car, and I had to drive / float my car through a small, very muddy river several minutes after the rain stopped. Several cars were stalled in it. Afterwards there were muddy sand beds in the middle of the roads and parking lots. Some people were flooded out of their homes and businesses. ...and it was all only within a mile radius. I've seen rain like that before, but normally it only lasts for a few minutes. This time it lasted for the better part of an hour.
The end of the world is near! :)
