Noah stopped by - he wants his flood back

Some guy with a long beard and flowing robes came by this morning, said he was building a boat. I hope he gets two of everything from around here, 'cause otherwise it's all gonna drown. The National Hurricane Center has confirmed everything I said: it really is coming for us! And the rain has been just intense - there's a flash flood warning until noon:

* AT 909 AM CDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR INDICATED A BAND OF HEAVY RAINFALL EXTENDING FROM SOUTHERN LONOKE COUNTY... TO NEAR CONWAY...TO CLARKSVILLE. THE RAIN WAS ASSOCIATED WITH TROPICAL DEPRESSION GUSTAV. MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL WILL CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS...AND THIS WILL ONLY INCREASE THE FLASH FLOOD THREAT.

(emphasis added) You can see the band of heavy rain on the weather map, which has been carefully modified to indicate our location.

Don't you wish you were back in Michigan now?

Uh...no update since this morning? Should we be worried? Or did you put a message in a bottle and it's just going to take awhile to get somewhere?

I'm pretty sure a message in a bottle would be more effective. On the up side, the hole I discovered today in my roof doesn't seem to be letting in that much water.
