W. Michigan weather

While we haven't had tornadoes or even the sirens going off here in W. Michigan, we've certainly had our share of stormy weather. Last night Hudsonville got 5.5" of rain in just a couple of hours. The street leading to my condo had about 6" of standing water and today the muck fields are flooded as I've not seen them in four years. In about an hour we have another storm hitting.

This makes day four of afternoon/evening thunderstorms. I keep thinking that I wish we could send some of this to Alabama and SC!

WE'VE HAD LOTS OF RAIN IN MORTON TOO, BUT SO FAR NO STORMS. HOWEVER IT HAS BEEN VERY WINDY. SOME OF THE FARMERS DON'T HAVE ALL THEIR CROPS PLANTED.

KEITH'S POTATO PATCH IS DOING GREAT. THE PLANTS MUST BE 12 INCHES TALL AND THE TOMATOES ARE DOING GOOD. CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE SOME NEW POTATOES AND FRESH TOMATOES.

98 degrees today, a new record. Still no rain in sight. It's like there's a big wall between the midwest and here; you're getting all the rain & we're getting none!
