We have had some heavy rains off and on the last two months,

but WOW

Awkward weather you Californians are seeing.

Good luck and drive safe if you must be out and about.

raining here...again.

Flash flood watches up everywhere and some warnings. Creeks around here can't hold any more water without them getting high now.. the ground is fully saturated. If we get some sort of tropical rain system over the east we are going to have serious flooding issues in these mountains...but on the better side when its not raining temps are around 80 and sunny :)

Weird up here too Dan.
This past week has been cold as hell, grey with mist and rain, with lots of thunder the past few days. Funny cause it rains all the time here, winter especially, but I go a year or two without hearing thunder a single time.

And this is thunder without the storm, just grey and pissy.

Northeast coast can report the same unusual weather this spring. Tired of all this rain. Guessing we'll have an usually dry summer.

Around where I'm living this is the fifth wettest spring on record. Farmers are just now getting into the fields.

Oh, that is fine if you are poolside or at a beach, not when you have a commute like mine. :nope:
