It was warm or very mild for a low this morning ,63f. That's our low in summer if its well over 90f in the day. Plenty of clouds and windy too.

The ground is still wet from the last storms. So far very good for what I have growing...

I woke up to a lightning show this morning, with a series of strikes within 1/4 mile. Got a good rain (.4) from that, although brief.

Good to hear Falcon, aren't you down south?

Yes, Orange County. We had another bout of rain in the afternoon--making the total .8 for the day. I backed my car out of the garage and was ready for the second one--the vehicle is clean now. I heard we are expected to get some more late Thursday-Friday. I hope so!

Looking forward to Friday! Bring it on, Mother Nature!

We had a bit of moisture, but still dry under the cars and hedges, so not much help. But we do enjoy it anyway!

Hooray for lightning putting nitrogen in the rain. Two good things at the same time.

Enough to fill my 42gal temp rain barrels at inside corners of the roof.
