It did not rain all summer and baked our briches off with super high heat. Today I get up and it's pouring ice water rain. I finished installing the gas tank, pump, filler neck and shield last night thank goodness. This time of year is great but I could do without freezing rain! Good news the stove is going and slowly cleansing away my anger lol.

Much welcome rain here,started light late last night.Heavy lightning/thunder around 4-5AM.Stopped an hour ago with 3/4" in rain gauge so far.More storms expected later today & tonight.57 right now,may hit 70 this afternoon.

First real rain here in almost a month,just a few sprinkles off & on 2 times since then.
 
There was a heavy frost here this morning, lows hit around 26 degrees last night. Calm, sunny and beautiful out now, still chilly at 39 degrees.
 
Ya, now that I want to get into the woods it's been very wet. Dry all summer.....well that's how it goes!
 
Yep, nothing but rain the last couple days, and more for the next 8 out of nine. Makes sense, since I just got the saw running again.:mad:
Supposed to be nice Monday, so I'll go do some more cutting in the woods and maybe get that hauled to the stacks.
We need the rain, so.........

Dave I could do with snow to be honest ! This last year of pure heat has been a killer for us. We like snow which is partially why I moved back to Michigan from Southern California. Which is Gorgeous too but no snow.

I'm with ya, Pete! I love winter..........its my favorite season, no lie......
 
I pulled the rain gauge a couple days ago so don't know how much has fell so far. Looks like a roller coaster type week coming up.
 
I heard from somewhere that 1 inch of rain would equal a foot of snow. By the end of this weekend, we would have two feet of snow. Rains projected for the upcoming week, too. Wondering if this means we will have a very snowy winter. Glad that I moved the 12/13 wood into the storage tomb two weeks ago.

Another 1 1/2" with heavy lightning & thunder,few strong gusts overnight. Still light rain coming down,ending in a few hours.Too late for this year's crops but will be helpful for next spring.
