Re: weather

Let's all hope your weather remains as 'boring' as it has been thus far.

We, on the other hand, seem to be getting normal monsoon season weather--unlike the last 2 or 3 years--rush-hour showers, some rather fierce, nearly every day. Also of note: there are two hurricanes in the Pacific, Bud and Carlotta, but not so much as a tropical wave in the Atlantic-Caribbean-Gulf of Mexico... yet. Quite a departure from the past several years.

Very rare to get rain in the summer. There is usually a big high pressure
system that settles in over North Texas around Memorial Day and it stays
there until fall. Every once in a while a strong cool front from the
Rockies will blow through and give a brief respite from 100+ temps and
sometimes drop a bit of rain. But that's it. Hence all my xeriscape
plantings.

again- thunder/lightening all that stuff. Next rain
was supposed to be Tuesday...sigh, they were wrong
again....

don't have to go to work tomorrow.  Taking her

normal here, no big

October/November then
January on and off through March then some big
storms in April and May.
From Memorial Day until well after Labor Day, forget
about it unless it's an
El Nino year.  We need an El Nino year REALLY badly.
 17 months of this
drought is making me severely cranky.

Gosh what is ma nature up to these days.

Glad no one is in the path of Calf fires..I

hope!

Pam any chance that drought will end soon?

When

is your 'usual'

raining season?

Holli was saying she was getting yet another

storm last night...

Chris P when is your garden tour? Are you

ready

or is this weather

effecting you too?

Tues-Wed (for about 24 hours) I got rain, a

few

downpours, but mostly

just light rain. Yesterday noticed how much

damage it did. Plants are

flooping over, trees weeping with water

collected

in the leaves.

Looks better this morning but never realized

that

even light

prolonged rain would do that.
Weatherman reported less than an inch total-

hum,

my wheelbarrel,

wagon and stuff is all FULL (read

overflowing)...

hum... thinking I

got a tad more than an inch! (not complaining

mind you)

now they say I am in for a heat wave this

weekend, starting today...

sigh, good time for you to visit Pam, we

might be

close to that darn

100 mark...
sigh...

Donna
