We've had it all here in Napier, New Zealand. It started raining at
1.00 this morning and in an hour 55mm fell - I think about half a
foot. People have been evacuated out of houses and kids are paddling
their boats along some streets. The power went off nearby and the
water pumps in certain areas were overloaded. I've never seen such
lightning, it seemed the thunder broke right over our heads. We had an
earthquake too, though fortunately not a big one. Our house is OK but
I notice this morning there is a water mark on the lawn of the house
across the road. More rain is expected to-day. Will keep you posted.

Oh, no, Bev. Purrs and prayers for your family's safety.

Smack Huey, and tell him he missed! That rain was supposed to be for the
country to the left! We Aussies are still in drought.
