why??? when there is a line of storms does it always break up right before it gets to our city

[seabeyond]

it happens so often. the line is huge. inevitable we are finally going to get rain. the line stays in tack all the way up texas, but right at amarillo it breaks up to nothing. and we get nothing. rain all around us. but we get nothing.

7. You are welcome to take some of ours.

Please. No, really. Take it. We're flippin' drenched, and we'd like some summer now, thanks.

There was actually an article a couple weeks back in the paper on the effect that the never-ending winter was having on people's moods. The wet weather this spring has broken Utah rainfall records. We all just want it to STOP NOW. Texas is welcome to it. Anyone is welcome to it. Just make it go away from here.

8. Don't wish too hard.
