Merced, CA suffered from a severe drought during the last years. Now the city is suffering from one rain storm after the other. Streets were flooded, farm equipment under water, Bear creek a raging river. People had to evacuate and houses were flooded. Today we had thankfully a break from the rain but tomorrow the rain will start again. One good thing happened. People are willing to help those who lost their homes and are currently in emergency shelters.
we have a similar problem here, although it is not so bad. guess they are more used to endless rain here
