This weather is out of control.
The wind is so strong it sounds like a train coming, and the rain looks like a wall of water.
Totally reminded me of when anti_duff and camped out while a hurricane was coming up the East coast. Stupid - probably, but we survived it.
We had his bike and my car, and were far from home.
It was raining so hard that I just put on a bathing suit, and we had to dig a huge moat around the fire and the tent. Thankfully anti_duff is very smart and actually built a lean to over the fire - saving it. I couldn't believe we had a roaring fire.
The next morning the sun was out and it was clear and beautiful.

I've lost count of how many of my camping trips were rained on over the years. My friends an I would take our boats to remote beaches and islands and camp for weeks at a time. We would set up tarps, dig moats around tents, use heaters in our tents, and cut up trees to keep giant bonfires roaring. Shit ... we had one spot we used for years on the ct river, we even hauled lawn mowers in to keep it cleared.
