Before I went to the gym this evening, the weather was strange. There was a yellow tint to everything and zero wind with some pretty foreboding clouds and what looked to be a mild rain outside. When I went out to my car, I found it covered in mud and I proceeded to get covered in it as well. Every car I passed on the way to the gym was also covered. I've seen rain with a good consistency of ash in it before but never mud like tonight. Anyone ever seen this?
Raining mud?

Where are you located? I suppose somewhere that is normally super dusty could get dirt trapped in the clouds and come down as muddy rain...thats pretty weird though, never heard of that before.
This made the news in 1999. Use the google newb:

ROFL.
I thought this was going to be another thread about pooping at work.
This is what happened in Ithaca a little more than a week ago: http://www.ridemonkey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=198384
Heh. It's pretty. It also takes out tons of trees and branches, leaving debris everywhere. This often leads to power outages. Walking outside becomes dangerous, both because you can slip, and because there's crap falling all over the place. Scraping that stuff off your car in the morning sucks. I can do without.
In her defense, there was a string of armed robberies occuring at Genie Car Washes around that time. One dude ended up getting shot at one around the corner from us.
I had that happen when I lived in SA too. It is pretty common to have what they call mud storms up in the TX panhandle. I'm sure Price and BCD are familiar. It's when there's a dust storm and light rain.
That sounds kinda scary if you really didn't know what was going on. Acid Rain? Sh!tstorm? Raw Sewage? Ya never know...

That's good cause if it weren't, there would be a lot of out of work weather channel employees.
Really, Capt. Obvious?

The one person you dont trust in texas - The weather person.
Sounds like a Slayer song.
Pantera would actually be more fitting...
Odd you should mention Pantera and mud.
Every time we got a Pantera song on the Sirius back in Virginia my brother in law and I had a mandate to find the nearest mudhole and rock it like its name was the Hurricane.
I really, right up until now, thought we were the only people who made that connection.
Glad to know we're never walking alone.
It's the government testing out some new crop manipulation chemicals. Fret not the government only cares about your best interest.
