Here in North Alabama we have had 10 inches of rain since Tuesday morning since I have a lawn maintenance and landscaping business I haven’t been able to work so finished up one project and started on another one. I was repainting a Massey Ferguson 135 for someone else got it all put back together and tuned and then started restoring my 1949 John Deere A.

Radar shows a long thin line of thunderstorms headed your way right now. A brother in law of mine lives in northwest Miss so I keep track of the weather there mostly out of curiosity.
 
(quoted from post at 19:37:46 02/23/19) It's a sign you should go fishin', providing you can find a river thats still inside it's banks. (LOL)

No river in the banks here now. There are 3-4 dams on the Tennessee river running 2 million gallons of water through the spillways a sec. each
 
Little north of North Alabama here in Middle Tennessee, roads closed everywhere, river at record heights and more to come. Past being serious becoming dangerous .
 
Huh, that was pretty much how we tried to farm up here in Minnesota all last summer, one week after another of 2-10 inches of rain........ got to be a long year.

Every time I've complained about
the rain in Central Alabama ,I
look at North AL! Y'all are
getting twice what we are. It's
been a tough month or so for us
fence installers!
 
Here in Cullman I have recorded 9 inches since Monday as of 10 pm sat nite. Show 1 more wave to come thru in about an hour. North side of county I
am sure has received more.

I’m in Hartselle I have poured out 9 out of rain gauge as of this morning. I am sure we have gotten at least an inch more tonight
 
I camped out at Athens, Al Thursday. It was raining when we
stopped and raining when we left Friday morning. I wish
someone would invent a self-cleaning scrubbing bubbles so I
could push a button on car, spray scrubbing bubbles and rain
will clean car.

I enjoy driving through Alabama when going to Florida. I hate
Atlanta traffic. BIL says he'll never drive through Atlanta
again even though going through Alabama may be a little
longer.

There seems to be more accidents in Georgia and you set in
backed up traffic. We both feel safer going through your
state. I credit your cops for doing a good job keeping
speeders under control.

If you continue to get rain, you may want to buy a boat.
 
Not had near as much rain as you but still
is flooded around here,add a few days
below freezing and it's a mess. I pulled a
tractor in for servicing and ended up
waxing it.

It was repainted in 08-09 winter. Took the sheetmetal off and repainted it, had a fish fry to trick my buddies into helping me assemble it. Never been under water but I did drive it thru 3 feet of water once to get to work. I have pics on my work computer, once I get back from breakfast I'll look them up.
 
Don't do that, we were 10 degrees this morning in Western Iowa and our daughter was 30 degrees in Tucson!
