Default Fawkin' rain...

I've had enough. You can stop now. Thank you.

This concludes day 2 of non-stop rain with 3 more days forcast to go. Makes me glad I live at the top of the hill instead of at the bottom.

Where do you think our strom came from. You add the hot air that blows out of Texans and it makes the storm stronger.

2 weeks ago we had 80 and sunny, since then its struggled to reach over 60 and we have had 2" of snow and over 3" of rain. In the past 2 weeks we have had 3 days completly rain free and its not supposed to stop raining until Thursday. We were supposed to be scouting new crawling spots but, aint going to happen for a while.

I meant that they need it to help put out the hundreds of fires that are destroying homes and ranches in that area....

We've been having rainy, overcast days for quite awhile but I love it. It's always so dry here that any wet weather is welcomed. Even this winter was really dry...my lawn looked like straw not too long ago. Now with the rain it's starting to green up again...just in time to turn brown when the heat and dry weather shows up

The rain here in WA is getting old... I usually never complain about it, but this year it has been overkill.

Its been raining good where i live too, i had 4" of water in the bed of my truck this morning...i park slightly down hill. I almost wasn't sure if i'd have to get out in the mud to turn in my hubs 20ft away from my house.

To bad all this moisture isn't snow, just plow it away.

I hate to brag but Minnesota has had great weather for us this spring. Some days colder then others but the rock temps are tolerable. Here's a pic of a 25ft+ crawling wall we're waiting to dry up.

Been raining for like two weeks straight in Ohio.

April showers, May flowers.

At least it ain't snow, cause snow is stupid. And cold.

I have family in the Federal Way area that have lived there for 30+ years, I don't know how anyone can live there for an entire lifetime. I lasted 5 years and couldn't take any more. The 8 weeks of summer are beautiful, it the rest of the year that I couldn't take!

I think here in the Portland area we hit close to 40 days of straight rain. The last few days we have had sunshine, hail, pouring rain that floods streets and back to sunshine. Our mountains are still getting snow, 10" of fresh snow today. At one of the resorts the snow level at the base is at 194"!! And it's still coming!

Today, we had some light flooding in a few of the streets, sunshine and temps in the low 60's then temperature drops and it starts to hail like crazy and light rain. Right now it's sunny with more thunder clouds headed this way.

We've had nearly 10" of rain since Friday, and one or two tornado watches a day.

Lake levels have risen 3 or 4 feet, the campground I stopped at today was half under water. Some poor schmuck left his camper there and it was in danger of floating away.

not to mention all of Texas really. both my grandparents grow hay, one of them does it for a living and if he doesnt get any rain he's gonna loose money, plus hows he gonna feed all his cows if he cant grow or even buy hay? i know we need it down here in pasadena, everybodies lawns and trees are dieing because we cant water 24/7.
