Flooding not a surprise. As I look back at previous blogs and what I said last night on FOX 8s late weathercasts, Im frustrated and saddened to see many cars flooded out tonight with others racing thru flood waters with zero regard for the wakes their cars are creating. I wonder how we (broadcasters) can be responsible for the irresponsible? I have come to realize that we cant. Stupid does what stupid is, or something like that from Forrest Gump. This was a well advertised rain event and folks should have been paying attention once the heavy rainfall began. My motto when I had teenage sons was...I want to know where you are because its my car ! Watching radar tonight again makes me think we are not done with the flooding rains. After 3-6 this afternoon & evening, we could see another 1-3 before its all over, and it wont be all over until late Saturday after dark. Pay attention during the day on Saturday as daytime heating could bubble up some heavy PM storms. A strong front arrive Tuesday with more storms followed by much drier & slightly cooler air for Wed-Thursday. Enjoy your weekend & Happy Mothers Day. Be with Momma if you can.
