Rain

[CliffordK]

Here we usually get a fair amount of rain in May. But, this year, we have dry hot weather. There is a little rain in the forecast next Wednesday, a week from now.

If we don't get some more HEAVY rain soon, then this will be a long, hot, dry summer, perfect for wildfires.

Tragic. Innocent life lost.

One death was a woman in a camper that got blown over. The other 2 were a woman and her unborn child that had a tree fall on their mobile home.

Dang it. More rain all day today. And more on the way this evening.
Wish I could send some to you guys in Oregon and west Tx. Ground is
completely saturated. Over flows on tanks are spilling over (and have
been for a couple of weeks). It was dry enough yesterday morning to
spray a few fence lines, but then the wind picked up and had to stop
spraying. I think all of this round of storms is moving east, maybe to
La. or Ark. No big high winds....just rain and lots of it.

I left the job I was working on at 1 pm when the thunder got really loud and I started seeing lightning. It's been steady, but light rain where I'm at, but the radar looks like it's super heavy just an hour South of here.

My goats hate the rain. The horses usually don't care if it's raining. I was surprised that this one was in there with the goats.

Don't be too jealous. What you want is a good soaking rain. Not a storm/rain on top of saturated ground.
Houston got winds and rain. Lots of folks have power outages. La. seem to always get storms/flooded.
Sunny here so far today. But next week predicting 90's and 30-40% chance of more rain.....

We have not had any moisture for more than a month. Going to be a bad fire season. It has always rained in april and may……nothing at all

Saw a map. Canada has a lot of drought condition areas across the country....but I'm sure
Trudeau can fix it

As soon as Abbot fixes your excess rain condition.
