I am a Magnet for Weather Related Disasters

I don't know what it is about me, but wherever I go, strange weather follows. Here's what happened yesterday in Raleigh (besides the 'Canes losing what could have been an easy game 5)

Hello All!
Well, some of you may have heard by now that tropical storm alberto took a pass through North Carolina yesterday and wreaked major havoc. Raleigh was one of the major areas hit, with downtown getting almost 8 inches of rain. I'm fine, but there was flooding all of the place with roads getting completely blocked off and some even getting washed away in sections. Crabtree creek, a usually pretty small stream, crested at 23 feet yesterday and flooded the mall, a major intersetion near it, and many other places along it's course. WRAL, one of the local TV stations has a whole bunch of viewer submitted photos, to give you an idea of what all happened. That link is WRAL Slideshow 6/14/06

My favorites photos (at the time I'm looking at them) are: 84, 94, 99, 117, 142, 164, 179, 191, 192, 197, 198, 200, and 206. Some of them are roads that I drive all the time and the last one is a park I will pass every day on the drive to my new school. Scary!

So, whaddaya think?
