Last weekend I was going to go home to Pittsburgh to visit family and friends, but a little hurricane got in my way. Ivan dumped 6 inches of rain on the Burgh in a matter of 24 hours, and this a week after over 3 and a half inches in another 24 hour span. I think I’ve finally convinced my mom that all it does in Pittsburgh is rain. Bushy had his chance for a pre-emptive nuclear (or nucular if you’re into metathesis) strike to take out Ivan while it was in the Atlantic. Maybe he was hoping that nuke they found off the coast of Georgia might spontaneously explode and save Florida, Louisiana, and the rest of the East coast.
Via Mark, some amazing pictures of the flooding and damage in Pittsburgh.
