Yep. We will be getting rain tonight and Monday morning in the area of Tennessee where I live in. The winds have picked up and there might be some possibility of flooding in certain low-lying areas of my city. I do not look forward to driving to work tomorrow it is going to be one ugly commute to work.

It is raining right now and we are also getting the thunder and lightning. This will continue tonight and into the overnight hours. We will have some flooding problems based on the local news channel that I listened to a couple hours ago. Hopefully the rain will end by the time I have to go to work tomorrow.

I drove into Middle TN late this afternoon on my way to my sister's. I was mostly taking backroads from I-65 and crossed a bridge that is usually 60 feet above a creek. The bridge actually had water lapping up to the sides. I went back with some family members to show them and the water was over the bridge, 30 minutes later and I would have had an hour detour! I'd post some pictures, but I'm still fond of my 35mm film.

This is going to be ugly in the morning.
