    No, won't happen. You've got the rains and we've been dry. So this winter we'll get the snows and you'll be in want.

    Seriously, we watched and waited all weekend. A friend, 50 miles east of us got well over an inch of rain. As of last night we had .2" when he had the inch +. But fortunately we did get another .3" overnight...when we weren't supposed to get it. So goes the forecast. But Saturday and Sunday the rains were all around us but as the clouds got close to us, the rains practically stopped. We got mostly mist or sprinkles off and on.

    Looks like NH and VT are getting some rain today? We got a little overnight but it’s done now until Wednesday evening sometime. Supposed to stay just west of us. It still feels like Florida though with dew points over 70. Yuck!
    Canadian border VT and Well Seasoned suppose you guys can nudge that east a little lol? I don’t think the guys in NY or PA would mind at all...

    I need too get one of those. I'm not splitting today because of the showers. The canopy keeps the sun & weather off, as well as keeping the splitter dry. That's getting put on the list !

    So no rain forecast, just mostly cloudy today. What do we have? Rain.:headbang:
    Need it badly, but come on.......No rain in the forecast for tomorrow either until earlier today.
    The concrete guy left for lunch after the rain started. Just came back and he's calling it day. They'll return tomorrow.

    We’ve been lucky and got some pretty decent rain the past week. I dumped about 4” out of the kiddie pool yesterday evening, and then it poured overnight and again this morning.

    It was full of mosquito larvae last week when I dumped it. So I wanted nothing to do with that! Need to rinse and scrub it.

    Another unseasonably dry and hot stretch here in Western WA. Been dryer than a powder house :fart:. Another year or two of this and we will loose our rainy and mossy reputation! I was at a local convenience store and saw a slug buying a cold six pak!

    Another shower rolling through, maybe storms with it. Up to .76" now, not bad over the course of the day.
