monsoon?

Don't think it could really be considered one, but we sure got dumped on!  We got almost two inches of rain in about 20 minutes.  Apparently the most intense it got was 12.8 inches of rain per hour.  And there was some hail.   And 60 kilometres per hour winds.  I stole some photos off the internet - although I will give the photo credits as they were given...

It was pretty crazy, but thankfully I was snug in my library office.  Unfortunately Eric and Lucy had just run her backpack over to her classroom (she gets the same teacher as Cade did last year - yahoo!! - and she let us bring in Lucy's stuff early so we wouldn't have to worry about it for the move) when the rain came.  They were pretty much stuck there for 20 minutes and then had to drive through crazy deep rain to get back home.
Nutty.
Tomorrow we start moving!  We get possession of the house in 17 hours and 11 minutes.  Good times.
Just praying it won't rain like that while we are moving!
