Go or Stay...that's the question

We really had a terrific storm in our neighborhoods yesterday: water across the highways moving cars into the nearby ditches and fields; trees falling across the highway hampering the flow of traffic; and, rains so heavy that drivers couldn't see the highways. My oldest daughter, "Little Red Riding Hood", called and said she was in Raleigh where the rains were so heavy through the construction areas that she couldn't find her way to her grandmother's house. Her dad told her to just take the roads she had always taken; even if the signs were down, the road was still there and would take her in the right direction. The prediction is now for more rains tonight but she will be staying over again. I just hope things will be okay for her to travel home tomorrow morning. Usually, the rains come during the late afternoons and evenings so "Red" should make it home with no problems. After all, she is an early morning traveler unless she has a teenager with her.

My other daughter is at the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Their weather is supposed to be marginal I think, some scattered showers there too. I do hope their vacation is not bothered too much by heavy rains. Showers are fine and will help cool down things.

We are supposed to leave tomorrow for the mountains but we haven't decided what is best since there are flash flood watches running the entire Eastern seaboard. I guess we will just wait until tomorrow to see the weather and decide whether to go or stay.
