this has been a wet, wet, wet year around here (Washington DC), too...2 dehumidifiers running constantly in the 'basement', which is a finished lower level....

The grass and weeds grow faster than we can trim and whack and mow, and there is flooding in nearby areas weekly. I can barely imagine what it must be like to get the first taste of each of these storms.

I did read that various expensive flood control measures have kept this from becoming an even worse disaster in Florida...

keep your chins up, Floridians! literally..
