Crazy Weather

We had some pretty crazy weather this last week.  We knew it was going to be wet -- and that's a very good thing given our drought conditions -- but we had no idea how much water to expect.  Right before all of this we thought it might be a good idea to try to plant some grass seed in our lawn because it's dying and sad.  Within a couple of days probably half of the seed had rushed away from where we planted it due to the heavy rain.  It continued day after day and came to a head on Memorial Day.  That day we ended up with a squall line that basically stayed stationary over our area and dropped around 5" inches of rain over the course of the day.  It also brought my first experience with a tornado warning (no tornados came close to our area but we got a warning).  Since nothing crazy happened during the warning, it was a good drill showing us several holes we had with our preparedness.  What we were surprised by is all the people who were driving around with all the weather warnings in the area as we watched some coverage.  I took a couple of videos of what the storm did do our front and back yards after the warning was over.
