Woo Hoo! IT'S RAINING! Really raining!
For those of you in the snow packed-otherwise soggy areas of the world, this is GOOD news. Here in Phoenix, we have been without any measurable rain for something like 143 days. (Oct 18, 2005 was the last time it rained. You do the math).
But right now, at 7:11am it is raining a nice steady drizzle, and has been for quite awhile. We have PUDDLES, people! Real PUDDLES! The air smells like wet dirt (that is what rain smells like here) and it is kind of cold. (another unusual occurrence here).
I don't want to go to work. Wonder if I can call in and say I can't make it because it is raining. Which might not be to far off because it sometimes floods here when it rains.
WOO HOO! RAIN!
I'd take rain over snow at the moment. The winter here in Germany is never ending. It snowed a little over night again , and the night time temps are down to around -9°c. I would like spring to turn up soon! :)
We finally got some rain too. Not enough to help with the wildfire alerts but enough to start turning some stuff green. WOOT!!
Hey where did you get the pic at the top with your name spelled out? That's cool!!!
