YOU'VE GOT RAIN!
05.062009
Memphis, TN

Rain, wind, thunderstorms, trees, and flooding. Memphis experienced some; or all of these elements last night as heavy rains found ITS pouring skies over the Bluff City. The skies were full in wet drippings as storms punched them opened with heavy raining. There were some cases of flash flooding, and downed trees. Also, lightening strikes loaded the skies and loud thunderings. The raging storms approached around 2 a.m. this morning and continued until about 5 a.m. Fact is, there are more rainstorms expected to head thru Memphis, Mississippi and Arkansas. Power outages were reported in Montecello, and Stuttgart counties in Arkansas and power crews will be working today to restore power to many Arkansians.

That's a delivery of Heap of Water!...but rains can be good.

How's that?
