We got our downpour on Friday.

They are calling for a low of 37 degrees here tonight.

Damned global warming is going to KILL us!

Well, the radar today looked kind of iffy, so Connie and I decided to ride up to the Sonic meet and hope for the best. But the *best* wasn't all that great. Hit some rain on the way up there and it was raining when we pulled into the parking area. There were a few die-hards there, but not many. It rained off an on for a little while, and quite frankly a car show in the rain with all the hoods closed is deadly boring. So we left. And hit rain most of the way home.

So I had to clean the car on the carport in front of the garage while battling the growing population of mosquitoes looking for a free meal. Just got finished and pulled the car (C5Z) into the garage before the rain began coming down in earnest.

This wasn't one of my better ideas...... Guess I'm going to adhere to my usual plan of not going to a car show unless there is pretty nearly ZERO chance of rain in the forecast.

Looks like rain forecast through Tuesday, so might as well hook up the battery tenders again.

Anyway, got more startups under my belt to check out the TAC module I replaced. So it wasn't all for nothing, I guess.

I was seriously considering going myself. The radar didn't look too bad at 3:30 but then it started sprinkling around 4:15 or so. It kinda blew up after that, heavy showers and thunder and lightning. Almost like a summer thunderstorm with the humidity as high as it was. Oh well, winter is over.....

Yeah, I left here around 4:00 and it wasn't raining at all until we got to Capitol Circle around rt. 90. With hindsight in mind, I should have just turned around at the first raindrop. But I was hoping it would be just a passing light shower.

Duh....

Looks like there is a LOT of rain just north of us. I think we are getting into the time of year where rain is going to be falling heavily all around us but not hitting this little spot on the map. We got a light rain yesterday most of the evening, but I think I'm going to have to check the fruit trees to make sure the new growth isn't flagging from lack of ENOUGH water.
