Checking the forecast this morning, I am seeing "rain, heavy at times" over the next seven to ten days, with a "flood warning" in effect for my area. I don't know exactly how much rain has fallen here over the last several days, I'm guessing - maybe - less than a 1/4 inch. And now flooding is in the forecast. . .
Oh well. Nothing I can do about it. I knew I lived in a potentially flood-prone area when I moved here (there was a major flood here in, I think, about 1955 where downtown was underwater, and several people died).
I purchased U. S. Govt. Flood insurance when I first moved here, I have kept it current every year since (although the likelihood of a major flood during a drought is pretty much slim to none).
I guess I will phone my insurance person this morning to make double-sure I am fully paid up.
It's always something.
