We have had second, (3rd?) spring the last few days, little damp, nothing to measure, but a sprinkle and cool, like low 70s, now today its near 90, supposed to be for the next few days, which seems mighty hot now, even though we had 90s in March. Finally, a month late, its starting to green up, not getting tall, but at least you can see green from a distance now.

Heavy rain today.  Been raining since early this morning, about 2 inches so far on the wally world calibrated rain gauge.  We need it, but I'm getting a little tired of it and the forecast is for more rain over the next four days.  It's holding up a lot of stuff I need to get done on the house....like the roof....

QuoteA lot of light and rumble all night for a measly inch of rain.

We got the same here, Stetto.  There were a few thunderclaps that rattled the windows and you'd have thought we were in a hurricane the way the wind was blowing.  About an inch in my highly calibrated wally world rain gauge. The sun came out for a bit this afternoon, they're saying more of the same tomorrow.  For now...

A lot of light and rumble all night for a measly inch of rain. We'll take it though...

Air traffic was routed south of Austin, never seen so many planes go over at one time out in the boondocks, there were dozens.

Yeah, she is making sure she uses it as much as possible, the problem is the postal service can't find people to work as subs.  Their pay used to be better than most other part time jobs, now they can go work at Walmart for more money, and not  have to have a vehicle for the job.

Us too, Jaime. They put the Gonzalez/Luling area as ground zero for tonight, 4-5 inches expected. Then a day off and round two on Thursday night into Friday, followed by a wet weekend, 80s the whole way. Ill take it as long as the gale winds stay off the menu. My little 20-footer isn't tied down...

Looks like another wet dreary week here.  80 degrees and raining, supposed to be like this through next Monday. 

Those sneaky Chinese, gotta be an invasion!

Wait, Roswell was a "weather balloon" they said too. 

I jumped off the tailgate of my pick up on friday...

It still hurts

My wife has decided to take an extra day or 2 a week off  to burn up some vacation time, I forgot what its like to have to look busy so I don't get put to work.

Burn up every second she can..

I left almost 600 hours on the table from the company...

They only pay out the required by law..

After being there almost 30 years I gained it faster than I could use it.
