No. We had a quick shower late in the week of the fires, and a tiny rain last night. The two, together, were probably no more than a 1/4 inch at best. So, in the last 2.5- 3 months, that is all we've had. Extremely dry around here, and the grass doesn't grow unless you are watering it, which isn't recommended in a drought, unless you don't want your home to go up in smoke. I seem to recall last year being extremely dry for May and June, and then we got a small rain just prior to July 4.

Same here in Blue Mountain, a light rain for maybe 15 minutes. Still that is the first rain I have seen in 35 days so I'm happy with what I can get.

Lol, I had the same problem- I thought there was something wrong with the Air Conditioning unit.

Same here. At first, we thought there was a critter on the roof, or the Air Force was doing somethng, but it was the almost forgotten sound of rain hitting the skylight.

Yeah, last night we got in the car after Bud & Alley's, Rapunz asked "Why is there water on the car?" :floor:
