It is raining

[webfoot]

A friend was here yesterday evening a number of times he said it was going to rain. I said yep in about 2 months. I still had 21 bales to pick up. But it is raining!!! Go ahead and rain on my hay. It is suppose to be 90 degrees tomorrow. This 1/4 inch will dry off pretty quick. I will just wait a couple days to put them in the stack. All 3 pickups have the window down. And it is raining. Oh well that will dry out too. The good news is it is raining!!!

Did you get puddles? We didn't but it sure smells good

Congratulations on the rain. How long has it been since the prior rain?

Oh yes the driveway would be good for fishing or duck hunting. That thunder storm at 4:00 really put some down.

We had some the last week in June. Before that it was April. When you live in the dessert you celebrate any time it rains.

There is a computer driven site called rain drops. I don't know how accurate it is. I pulled up Baker county on it. You click on a spot and it gives you the 24 hour total for that spot. I clicked on a lot of spots around the county just now. The results varied. But it gave me by far the highest number at 0.88 inch. The farther north had lower numbers. It gave me 0.05 for Nicky's area. Again I don't know how accurate it is but it is interesting.

Had an inch and a half in the gauge at 7am this morning.Most of it came in the last 3 hours.
That's 3.2 total since this system has moved in.`Have rain chance here until Sunday.

Alot more 200 miles South of me.Some have had 20 inches in the last 3 or 4 days.

Reports this morning that Uvaldi has had well over 2 feet now.
Guadelupe River has risen 35 feet. I have seen videos of creeks that are normally 12 or 15ft wide are over a mile wide in some of the flat farm land down there. Lots of evacuations and rescues.

I just put that Raindrop app on my phone .It seemed pretty close to the rain gauges around the area. Maybe a bit under the totals but close.
My daughter got 1.2 inches and we got .6 of a inch 12 miles east.

I looked it up too, pretty neat

Are any of you being affected by the recent river flooding? Please stay safe if it is near you.

We have nearly dried the river up taking irrigation water. Fish have to walk to get around.
