Well I can say if you need rain you can gladly take some we have had.I can bet that since may til now that at least 3/4 of those days where I live it has rained.I have had to mow every 5 days or it gets too high to mow.And I am a very picky person especially when it comes to cars being kept clean and all this rain is ticking me off.I believe next time I buy a new car I will also buy a junker for 2-3k just to drive in rainy weather!Hell the way this year has been the new one will only have 1,000 miles on it!NC has become the tropical rain forest I do believe!
