In the Wet

o/~ It's raining cats 'n dogs,
and it isn't fit for little frogs. o/~

Todays commute was very entertaining. While diving through Bremerton [yes, diving] I heard a traffic report for Gorst, three miles behind me. If they report anything in Kitsap county on the radio it has to be significant. Three separate accidents blocking traffic. I missed that mess be 5 minutes.

The National Weather Service has issued warnings for urban flooding in Kitsap. Too late. Even with new wipers at full I still couldn't keep up with the water. Still I had a better time then many others on the road. I really love my Subaru!

I heard the national weather service flood warnings more than 24 hours ago. Not too late, at all.
