Okay, We are Toast

We got 1 1/4" last night and it's raining now.

My prayers are with those in drought, facing and fighting fires. Hope and praying for relief.

This probably isn't going to help me win a popularity contest on this thread, but we got another 3" today. We sure needed it.

WOW @baymule That is a nice rain. We got maybe 1 to 1 1/2 over the last 3 days. Could use more. The ground was cracking .

Very sad news. Praying for rain (without lightening) and the safety for all in the path of these fires.

Amen and amen.

We have had

August (so far): .04"
July: .19"
June: .07"

81 days and not 1/3 of an inch of rain.

And we have had the wettest summer in years and years. I have only watered my garden once.

Dry early spring, wet, wet, wet late spring into summer, dry July and now were are nearly caught up with our summer's average with August's rainfalls.

All in all it is going to be a good year here. The blackberries suffered from July drought when the fruits were setting, but earlier the black-capped raspberries were fantastic.

I do so wish we had the ability to make it rain where it is most needed right now. A few of so lucky's showers would have gone a long way to alleviating the fires on the Western USA and I would willingly give up a few rainfalls to help.

Exactly. The west coast is desperate for rain. Praying things get better there soon.

Steve, I hope all the smoke isn't affecting you too badly. It actually smells more smoky in my house than when you step outside.
I miss seeing the sky.
I'm praying for all the firefighters and people in harms way. Rain would be a great mercy.
