Will it ever stop raining?

Our area has received record rainfall in the month of June. We have only had 3 days in June without rain. A couple weeks ago we were getting on average an inch a day for about 3 days in a row.


This is my rain measuring duck. We had just finished our 2nd day in a row of getting an inch or more of rain. Someone at work told me Seattle called and wants their rain back since they are going through a small drought right now and my vote is to send it back.
This was one crazy storm. Smithfield which is 20 miles south of us had hail that was just a little bit bigger than marbles. Jeff's parents unfortunately had to replant most of their garden because it was ruined by the hail. There were quite a few people in Smithfield that also had their homes flood because of the amount of rain received in a such short amount of time from this storm. Looks pretty viscous huh?
It's a good thing God gave us his promise to never flood the earth again.
