On the rain and the flooding...

[conuly]

This, too, is normal. Or, not normal, just not abnormal.

See, in the northeast, we typically get a lot of rain in October. We're flooding now because... well, I don't know about New England, but I suspect that it, like New York, didn't really get any rain this summer. And that's normal too. I can't remember the last year we went through a summer without a drought watch on.

Yes, we got a bit less water this summer than usual, but, c'mon. Some summers have to be "very dry", or else what's a heaven for?

You got flooding too? It's not hit my area yet, but no doubt it will soon. Of course, earlier this summer we had a month's worth of rain in an hour *shrugs*

But yeah, flooding is the one thing we do have in the UK, so this certainly isn't abnormal.
