It rained.
For the Spokane Area, there was a daily record of .42 of an inch. I know, many of you are jealous.
Understand that this is a semi-arid climate with summer usually as the dry season. This is one reason that I am hoping that we are moving out of this "Exceptional Drought." We didn't expect to be slammed by a drought through the Spring. If dry weather ensues, it's usually late in Summer.
Others were discussing the moisture content of their beans for dry seed harvest. There is an advantage here. Low humidity and low chances of rain, usually make this a very good seed harvesting area. That changes with higher elevation where evergreens dominate. And, I hope that they can remain the climax plant environments!
Anyway, this was a MOST WELCOME rain.

The weekend was a beastly 92 degrees. Finally last night the heat broke. Today it is only 60 at 1 p.m. We did get a little rain too. 1/4 inch.

raining, raining, raining. not super hard downpours yet, but still a lot of rain coming down. looks like it will be going on for quite a while yet, so at least now i understand why there are flood warnings out.
