How big is a cubit?


It has been raining cats and dogs around here for more than a week. I've seen all the rivers and creeks up near the tops of their levies with muddy fast flowing water and lots of debris.

So I've decided to start building an ark for me, Melissa, the kids, our two pet beetles, and our 15+ stick bugs (no exact count available). Of course any friends or family who are in town are welcome to join us.

I heard this morning that we have gone from being down on the seasonal rainfall total by more than 25% for the year to up by more than 25% in the span of a week. Now you have to keep in mind that the seasonal total at this time is about 9 inches but still!

So, given what is going on does anyone know how big a cubit is?
