Re: I'm getting webbed feet
said by Sweet Witch  :I hope it clears up for the fireworks next week.
Ugh! Last year I had a front row to the fireworks, unfortunately I could only see flashes in the fog/clouds. Of course, people complained...  |

| I got some great shots last year but I fear they'll be rained out this year, or at least backed by clouds that will ruin my shots.

If the official measuring site got the same thunderstorm and downpour I just got, we've surpassed 5 inches of rain this month.
I've see flashes of lightening and felt the BANG of thunder less than half a second later a few times. |

Final total of June rainfall in Wormtown is 6.5 inches.
2.25 inches in the past 9 days.
And the next 3 days say rain. 
While typing this, a downpour of rain has started. |

I just mowed my lawn last night. I can afford to see another few days of rain without worrying of my yard becoming a rain forest. |

More gray skies.
More fog.
More drizzle.
June left with rain, July is taking over.
I (very seriously) can't take any more rain, drizzle, fog, or gray sky.
30 days in June. 8 days of "all day" sun. Temps are about 15 degrees below normal.
I WANT SUN AND WARM WEATHER!!!!!! |

Mosquitoes now...
My "Bat Condo" seems empty this year too. I'll have to sit out around sunset / sunrise and see how many are around. |

Ya know, if this rain were snow my house would be completely buried under snow. It's almost been cold enough to be snow.

| Don't know the rain totals here but we had torrential downpours until about 2pm. I drove past the carnival, and they hadn't even put it up yet!! It should have been up and running yesterday.

I spent yesterday at the carnival and it was a pretty good day. A small storm did roll through abbout 4pm, but it only lasted about 20 minutes and the rest of the evening was clear, including for the fireworks. I honestly couldn't believe the turnout for the fireworks! Last year there were about 75 people in the same location, this year it had to have been 300-400! I found my car looking like a jungle gym with people all over it.
Today and Sunday are looking gorgeous as well.

The sun has been out for two days!!!! But two days ago we had a thunder storm at night, that was literally a "gully washer."
But today was 100% NO RAIN!
I am going to need a hayer, to cut my lawn. At least THAT likes all the rain we have had. |

| It appears that way on the radar. Looks like I'm going to have to walk home in it, too.
Normally I love wild weather, but we've had so much rain over the last month or two, the thrill is all washed out of it.
