[1982vett]

Nope, just couldy and humid. Is raining 20 miles to the east a little bit but that is moving south. Stuff to the north is moving east. Weather map is so convoluted I don't expect it will or can rain. Will have to wait and see.

Did get the hay moved to the barn this morning. No dew this morning so that is a change and a rain sign but the sagebush says it isn't going to. .

purple sage and desert willow are both blooming,usually a good sign--but in times of drought all signs fail.

Seems to be the further north the more rain this year. But with El Nino comin this winter that might reverse. For all yall down in South TX I'm hopin it does. I was drivin up 183 through Lampasas a few weeks ago and couldn't believe how burned out is down that way. Aint nearly as bad up here closer to the Red.

I got the proverbial turd floater last night. Big storm out of nowhere. I had an above ground pool. Note I said Had. It's on it's side at the moment tangled in a fence. I darn near got blown away by the winds out here. Must have been at least seventy miles per hour. I have no idea what kind of rain we got. I have to get out when the sun comes up and find all the stuff that blew away.

Wound up with 1/4inch of rain but I was glad to get even that much.

Gust front - comes from a collapsing thunderstorm.

Sounds like one we had about a month and a half ago. Ours was more than that of a collapsing thunderstorm. Now you get to cut up the blown over trees and fix fences they fell on.

That is all we have been getting lately. Just the leftover wind and no rain.

All we got last night was the lightning show.
