Glad you're getting rain Joanne. None here in Elmore County yet, but we have a better chance tomorrow evening. I sure hope we get some. The last day for a good rain here was Oct. 3rd I think. Somewhere around there anyway. We are in desperate need of the wet stuff. :)
Sorry to hear about your back surgery. Take care, and hopefully you'll be gardening again next spring!

my gauge showed 1.4" from last night. better cover your japonicas tonight! *lol*

Finally, it began around 2 am this morning, and we got almost 2 inches! Very much needed, I might add. I'm just sorry to see it getting below freezing already. I've still got so many plants in bloom.:(

Still none here. Last good rain was before Katrina. Some showers, but none that rose to 1/2 inch and only two of those, one in September and one in early October.
