Tropical storm Lee is taking its good old time passing through this part of Kentucky. We've now had over 2.50" of rain since it started on Sunday night and the winds are now at 25 MPH. Our fifth wheel was rockin 'n rollin all night long, and it was easy to get up this morning for our half day of overtime this morning. The forecast now is for the rain to continue through today and tomorrow, and ending on Thursday. There are flood watches all over the southeastern part of Kentucky. We are fortunate that our campground is sitting on top of a hill.
The temperature only rose to 69 yesterday and that was recorded before daylight. The high during the day never made it above 65, and the temperature right now (4:15 AM) is 59. We both are dressing in our winter work clothes that we used last year when we came in November to work. It's amazing that only a few days ago we were sweating in 98 degree temps. This all comes with the territory of the east coast and we will be glad to leave this part of the country when our work assignment is completed. We feel sorry for the folks that just got over Hurricane Irene just over a week ago.
There isn't much to do on our days off with this storm still passing through. We will probably go to the Sams Club in Elizabethtown tomorrow. Other than that, we will just sit and watch the rain while watching some movies we copied from TV over the last couple months. Oh, and I probably will do some more work on eliminating old documents with the scanner when I figure out the best method for organizing the data. Have a great - and dry - day...
