I got soaked to the skin on my 10-minute walk up the hill to my apartment Tuesday afternoon, but at least I am alive. Things were much worse in my neighborhood Wednesday morning. I wore my rain gear and my waterproof hiking boots on my walk down the hill this morning, but the boots didn't do much good. The waterproofing just kept the water inside.
