Heavy rain

Tonight the rain nicely held off most of my evening commute, but when I walked the dog it was pouring. We get a lot of rain in western Washington, but typically it's light rain, even just heavy mist. It's the rain you can walk in without getting wet, but tonight I walked in it and got soaked. It was heavy rain, sheets and curtains of rain. Even my dog, who is usually impervious to weather, found it too much and turned around early in the walk to come back home. And he found a sheltered place by the wall of our house to "do his business" out of the elements. (TMI, I know.) I don't see any flood warnings, though, for any of the local rivers. I would be most concerned about the Nooksack.
