The Mississippi River can be torrent at times.

I live near the Missouri River around 1-70. We would go down there for music, food, fun, and to cool off. You have to be real careful not to get to far out, the torrents sweep into the bank area sometimes and can carry you away.

 

[Kaila]

Sometimes the results of actions taken in an attempt to remedy a problem,
might begin to show very slowly, and to appear in only small ways,
and therefore, the reactions to hoped for and obvious improvements, might be limited as well;

And yet, at some point, those small results can become cumulative,
and it becomes apparent, that the trickles of efforts have finally turned into a torrent of success!

At times SF slows down before the next torrent of posts and threads.
