Fixin' to have our fifth "100-year flood" in the last 15 yeaars here in Davenport.
Good thing climate change is a hoax or things could REALLY get bad!

Its nice and cool outside, but too sticky. Kind of like OP's mom.
Time to grab some leather gloves and noodle a good ole catfish for supper.
It is just mother nature's way of freshening up the dirty d.
You, sir, are a kind and generous man.
Mother Nature must not be satisfied with the overall cleanliness of the Quads. Thus: the frequent flooding.
No amount of bison on a bridge is gonna remedy that.

No - and unfortunately, Kewanee and Galesburg often get nailed with the storms that are deflected by the bubble.
Ts and Ps.
One of my favorite pics ever to come out the quads. Maybe THE favorite.
Just a little over an inch in the gauge now…. Looks like more coming later this afternoon…and it might be a little rougher storm-wise. Nothing out if the ordinary yet though.
My favorite was of a hand in a parking lot

That looks like a red penis
When it's hot and sticky,
Ain't no time for dunk'in dicky.
But when it's fall and the dew is on the pumpkin,
That's the time for dicky dunk'in...
You spread your seed around the flagpole? I'll never question your patriotism...
A 100-year flood is a flood event that has on average a 1 in 100 chance (1% probability) of being equaled or exceeded in any given year.[1]
Probability
A common misunderstanding is that a 100-year flood is likely to occur only once in a 100-year period. In fact, there is approximately a 63.4% chance of one or more 100-year floods occurring in any 100-year period. On the Danube River at Passau, Germany, the actual intervals between 100-year floods during 1501 to 2013 ranged from 37 to 192 years.[6] The probability Pe that one or more floods occurring during any period will exceed a given flood threshold can be expressed, using the binomial distribution, as𝑃𝑒=1−[1−(1𝑇)]𝑛
where T is the threshold return period (e.g. 100-yr, 50-yr, 25-yr, and so forth), and n is the number of years in the period. The probability of exceedance Pe is also described as the natural, inherent, or hydrologic risk of failure.[7][8] However, the expected value of the number of 100-year floods occurring in any 100-year period is 1.
