Last night, around mid-night, we had an hour's worth of thunderstorms come rolling over the house. None of the iPhone's weather apps forecast the rain. I only got a snapshot of the precipitation from the Apple Weather app after the rain started to fall. In the mean time all the little cats came into the bedroom to be with me, either up on the bed next to me, or else under the bed. Luke in particular came back and stood next to the bed and vocalized up to me, then leaped up to settle next to my feet. He hasn't done anything like that in years, but last night sent him back to stay with his person. I suspect it's going to occur more often as the climate, and the weather, grows more extreme.
I'm no weather person but I would call what the precipitation view of Apple Maps showed as a micro front. It formed north-to-south and rolled out towards the Atlantic coast as a rather rapid clip. This isn't the first time I've experienced something like this, but it was one of the worst. Constant loud thunder and heavy downpours accompanied this meteorological event. It showed up without warning, and then left rather rapidly. When I went out this morning there was still standing water around my street where the nearly seven hours after that rain storm still was sufficient time for full runoff to occur.
This is unusual for mid-Florida. It's just a taste of what south Florida has been going through this year. Florida has an idiot governor who won't do a damn thing to help mitigate the destructive effects.
