Water, Water Everywhere...
Yes, the skies have opened and we are getting a ton of rain. The front and back yards are completely underwater. The water is going into the garage, and there is a leak. It's seeping through the insulation of the garage.
If it doesn't stop soon (and it isn't expected to) we're going to need a boat or something.
Well...if we all float away at least it will kill the ants that have taken over the sink... They came in to get out of the weather, I assume.
Sean, if I don't e-mail you this evening, that will be because either the power has gone out or we're making a swim for it. Hopefully just the former.
Tornadoes are expected sometime today, too.
ETA: According to a weather report, there should be 2-4 more inches by this afternoon, followed by storms off and on for the rest of the weekend.
ETA 2: Wow. In approximately 15 minutes, the water finished covering the floor of the garage.

For the last hour it's stopped raining. That should give it a little time to dry out the garage, before the torrential rains return this evening.
