Had a strong storm with lots of lightning come down from the north late last night. Looked like we were going to get clobbered as it widened out to the west. Then suddenly right before it got here, it sort of squeezed around to the east of us with us barely getting a drizzle.

Then today a couple of lines of storms came in from the north west, headed directly for us. The first line wrapped around us to the north, and then the second line wrapped around us to the south. I saw a few rain drops on the leaves when I went outside, but that was it. Those storm fronts went on through and pounded Perry and looks like Gainesville is getting clobbered too.

I swear someone around here must have some sort of rain repellent machine or something. It's actually uncanny how it does that most of the time. Wish I could easily capture videos of it. It's kind of funny in a gallows humor sense.

Probably need to water the citrus this week. The rain sure isn't helping any.
