Looking out the window, you'd think it was 1:30 in the morning, with little moon out. It's black. And raining -- very, very hard. It has been like this for the last half hour, nonstop. I'd planned to run errands this afternoon that involved alot of walking around outside. I'll wait a bit, I think. If I look closely, I can barely see cars in the parking lot a hundred feet away.
