WOOT!
We've finally got our monsoon season to start. Its pouring outside, the wind is whipping the trees around, and my cat is off who knows where.
I wish I could watch the monsoon, but the window behind him doesn't give much view out front.

A monsoon is a seasonal prevailing wind which lasts for several months. InformationArizona MonsoonRead those, specifically the second one since that's more to do with where I live.

At times. The worst I've seen the last five years is power outages, flooded streets, and lots of leaves/branches everywhere.
We, my state, enacted a stupid driver law because of the monsoons. Mainly, its a law where you can get fined I think for driving into a flooded street and having to have someone rescue you.

Why would you fine someone? What if they drove in by accident. Then what? Your paying for your life to get saved? Or your paying for a accident?

You're paying for the fact that others had to go and rescue you because you drove into a street that's flooded higher than your car can go through. Try watching this, its a better explanation www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXQq4TuL1zgThat's exactly what each street looks like

Its not that they get distracted, its the fact that they know what they're doing, and go right through it anyways. They believe they and their cars are invincible and they're not.
