it's OK unless you're made of sugar - tomorrow it'll be better - get out there and abuse some rain x.

Had some bad rain here recently, fair bit of flooding. I drove 700km the other day, it took me 16 hours due to rain! Flooding on the Bruce hwy, the main North/South coast road in Queensland. Watched (And stopped at them) 4 car accidents. Truck pushed off the road by its trailer and rolled. Ute aquaplaned in front of me and rolled down a 15ft embankment. A Coaster bus hit a small land slide and several cars hit the back on a blind bend, almost got me too when I was getting people out of the bus! And a 4wd aquaplaned off the road and ended up on its side. The rain was so hard that it scrubbed paint off the front of my daily driver! Welcome to the wet season! Doc.
I woke up this morning like it was Christmas. I have the day off for Roundup and now I don't know what the hell to do. Hope it clears up after that nasty line of storms hits in a little while. Hope none of these cars in hotel lots get hail damage
There's probably plenty of spots in south Texas that would pay us to plan a rod run in there area just to get the rain that will surely fall on the event
You think your rain is bad...try snow in Denver and surrounding areas...calling for 8"-15" inches around here today, and the same tomorrow...it'll dump 3 feet in the foothills...not nice for spring time "cruising"... R-
We've had some wind here, but now it's lookin like today is going to be pretty sunny! By next week I think it's supposed to be in the 80s. Move to California! =D
Once a year the NHRA "Big Show" come 30 mile from home...and Sunday it will be raining from dawn to midnight. Thank you GOD for saving me from spending money on 1000' phony drag racing.
Just saw a report on the hail in lubbock........they started off by saying........looks like winter is back........but that's not snow.........it's hail...........or hell.....I had the closed cations turned off
More people? No. More Hot Rodders, and a 'chick' that loves cars and to work on them? Hell if So Cal doesn't want you we do! Doc.
Virginia hasn't been much better. I had my garage built in Nov. They are just now paving from the driveway up to the floor today. Thay poured my floor 2 weeks ago. First time it's been dry enough in 5 months. I have mud everywhere. More rain all next week. F#$@ Rain! Yep!
Perfect weather all week. And of course, its back to perfect on Sunday. Of all the weekends...........
So is the Roundup a wash today? Or can they move some of the cars/swap inside the fairgrounds buildings?
So far all we know is that the vendor booths are all being moved inside. Looks hopeful that this **** will go away by tomorrow. Lookin like downpour all day today.
I wish it'd rain up here and wash the residual salt and sand off the roads. A couple days of afternoon downpours would make me rather happen.
