This morning I was contacted via tweet by The Detroit Free Press (@freep) to receive permission to use a photo I tweeted of one of the many storms that has ripped through Metro Detroit over the last two days.

I was, of course, flattered and I said yes. They used to photo to accompany a story about the pending flood warnings we are under.

The picture and headline graced the front page of Freep.com for most of the morning.  Below is a screencap of the article itself.

The picture's caption reads: "Roads in Canton Township are awash from drenching rains. / Photo by Twitter user @katelynshelby"

My mother now thinks I'm famous.
