Hey Cougsfan - good to hear from you. Yes - last week some VERY close calls. But - thankfully - again today - RAIN. So far a steady drizzle - 0.14" - as of right now.

It doesn't smell like rain outside. It smells like dry grass soaking up the rain. Kind of like wet cardboard. I hope you are getting this rain also.

Meanwhile, we've had several days of 2" of rain or more in recent weeks. Currently over 4 inches above normal for this month. July was 6 inches above normal. Lots of areas seeing record rainfall and flooding.

Too bad we can't shift it a few hundred miles.

As mentioned previously - if we got 2" in any 24 hour period - disaster. It rained again - yesterday afternoon and last night. 0.18 inches. A whole lot of difference between rain here and wherever Diggin It is located.

It's 50F this morning and no smoke.

Since Jan 1 - EXACTLY 7.44 inches of moisture right here. That's snow and rain combined. Diggin It - I'd have completed my ARK - long ago - if we ever got anywhere near 20".

That's just Summer. We had over 17" in Spring (Mar-May) and over 15" in Winter (Nov-Jan), so over 50" since November. Yup over 4 FEET.

HMMMMM - now I know where some of OUR rain goes. You must get weary of wearing galoshes ALL the time.

I know I sure get tired of dust blowing up in my face - constantly.
