Texas: It Reminds Me Of Florida

Late yesterday afternoon the northern skies over Allen Texas got dark, and lightning was clearly visible. But it never rained in my brother‘s neighbourhood. We drove a few miles towards the other side of town, and there was substantial flooding everywhere !  It was still raining a little bit, but it had already rained a lot. We picked-up our dinner (at Wingstop), and then we headed back home again in the puddles. Once we got back to his neighbourhood we realized that it was bone dry again. It never rained here.

It reminds me of home – a place where we can have torrential downpours for an hour over one neighbourhood in Homestead, and nothing at all everywhere else. What rain ?  We didn’t get any rain !  Are you kidding me ?
