Missouri Monsoon

I can't believe the rain we've been having.  We've been in the Missouri monsoon season.  We've had over 12 inches of rain in one week.  And the soil was already somewhat wet before that started.   

Of course, the valley behind our house has a big pond.  We even have had shorebirds and wading birds find our backyard "lake". 



Hundreds of roads are closed and dozens of schools are closed, including Mountain View schools.  This is crazy.  We may have more rain tonight.  


This is a street in our subdivision.  Low areas all around my corner of the Ozarks are flooded.  






That's our house on the hill.  Do you think the water will reach us?
