lol you hope for sun, I hope for clouds and rain. We did not get much, 0.05 inches, but better than nothing, barely gets the soil wet, but the plants suck it in. It rained more south of us ie DC

 

[j.w]

It is going up and down here like a yo yo! One minute it is pouring and the next minute the sun is out. Geez we will have to mow the lawn cuz this is perfect growing weather!

 

[addy1]

Our grass has not been growing, maybe it will start with this snitch of rain. I have mowed once this year, just a freshin up mow from winter

 

[j.w]

All the sky is blue now w/ bright sunshine................very weird! No rain in sight now.

lol don't complain jw! get out and enjoy the sun! it is spitting a little rain again yippe, just a little.

Our rain has been pretty steady all day. I think j.w. is hogging the sun north of us. But, it's supposed to come our way around Friday and stay for a few days. Our lawn has been growing fast. Jeff just mowed it a week ago and it's ready again.

 

[j.w]

Believe me if I could hog it I sure would cuz we see very little of it up here and hey I think Cali gets way more then their fair share of sunshine during the year! Now tell me how much of the sun in Spring/Summer/Fall you guys down there get compared to us...........tell the truth now,lol!

They say we have the bluest skies here in Seattle..............the only trouble is we don't see them that often!

 

[SmithRiverPond]

Ok, here's the whole truth, and nothing but the truth... ready?

2011 Rain = 76"
January = 6.1"
February = 7.9"
March = 20.1"
April = 11"
May = 5.35"
June = 1.5"
July = .8"
August = .05"
September = .7"
October = 6.8"
November = 10.1"
December = 5.6"

During the summer, when there is little rain for the mighty redwoods, we get a lot of fog. Sunshine... not so much!

So far in 2012 we have had 57.45" of rain.

 

[addy1]

That is a lot of rain!

We have had 6 inches since 1/1, with todays rain, 1.3 inches since march 1, normally by now we would be around 16 inches for the year The river that runs near by is already really low.

 

[SmithRiverPond]

In 2010 we had 106.5" for the year. We do live in a rain forest!

 

[addy1]

I have been there, and it is wet! We would float away if we got that much rain.
