i put my motorcycle out for the rain to wash it (filthy since i got caught in rain on Tuesday) so far all i got is about 20 drops and it stops lol

[Paula]

now we got rain. the tassels on our corn was looking a bit dry, this is needed so much

[growalot]

Broken clouds...no rain in sight...every thing is north of us ...we might catch just the very tail of a storm....Of course if it does...thank our son...he's having a 4th party today...figures...lol

[Doc]

I heard it the day before yesterday, an all we got was the same kind of 20-drop rainfall. The pond is just about dry and it is the only water source near the garden. When it's gone ..... the garden is gone. I figure about three or four days.

[Paula]

not sure where you are doc but it poured in pearl creak for 15 min on tues. lol does that help

[Paula]

glad i went to the woods early so i am not walking in the mud

This year it is either feast or famine .... floods in one valley and drought in the next. I have had a few of those destructive kinds of rain storms last year. I'll take the drought. The heck with the garden if the alternative is shoveling tons of rocks, gravel, logs and leaves off my lawn like I did last year. Let the damn garden dry up and blow away .... lol. If we do get one of those kinds of violent storms it'll probably wash the garden out anyway.

We just had a quick blast. Some of the coolest clouds you'll ever see!

Wind,a splash of rain and some lightning. No help here for my parched lawn, garden and shrubs.

It did look nasty to the north, as in Niagara County. Hopefully no damage from the wind.

Got hit hard for ten minutes then gentle for 10...lightening high winds and brown outs....Thank God we need two or three of those a week for the next month

Raining nicely in Delhi today. No wind, lightning or thunder, just rain. Temps @ 69 degrees too. Nice!

[Paula]

surprisingly our garden is still wet. In the next few days hope to start picking more than yellow squash

[Doc]

Well, how about that ..... finally one rain that didn't skirt around us. And it wasn't very violent either. It was actually a nice steady rain for a short time. Nothing like what we need to fix up the water table, or chsnge the level of my pond to any noticeable extent. but it did give the garden and the lawn a good drink that may last a few more days.

Pretty good light show to our north. Most here is dry lightning. Seems to be along lake Ontario heading southeast into Rochester area. ( according to radar) Think it forgot how to rain.

lightning was pretty cool last night, not sure yet if it has rained

Here on Lawng Island we have nothing but heat, and there's plenty to share if you would like me to send some your way. Keeps threatening to storm but so far just a tease.

Reached 96 yesterday. We had about 3/10 of an inch, just before 11 last night. No drought buster by any means, but the tomatoes, peppers look better this morning. Least, their not wilting yet. Also cooled down to 80 or so, less humidity. Now to get something done in the field.

its teasing again, rumbles of thunder and some dripping rain. No break in the heat, in fact its worse with the humidity
