Dear Thunderstorms,

Please stop raining. You graciously provided us with multiple inches of rain overnight and tornado sirens... twice. Now, you're at it again. The streets are flooded, my pool is overflowing, my poor baby tomato plants are drowning, and I really wanted to ride with my new saddle this afternoon - before I go out of town for a week where all I will do is eat and get zero exercise. I see on the radar that you are planning to hammer us periodically throughout the day. Go somewhere else - but be gentle with them.

Thank you.
