We expect it Tuesday night. In California.

Seriously???


The weather has been SO odd this year. It's cold and dreary today....in California......in the middle of the Mojave Desert.

Hey, that sounds like us here in Central Texas as well. We got about an inch last Thursday, first rain we have had since early October...
But I know that West Texas is in bad shape also. I have a friend whos family lives in Monahans and they are approaching a year without any rain.....sheez.....

Weather man says it's looking like mid June before we start to see any significant amounts of rain again. I really wish this weather pattern would let up. I'm worried about my pets and my daughter is bugging out about dirt pnemonia (sp?) (they leaned about it in school recently)

Wow! Dirt pneumonia.....I had not thought about that but I am sure it is a very real concern. All you have to do is look back to the people who lived thru the dust bowl of the great plains in the 30's and I am sure they had the same problem.
Our best bet right now is for a tropical system to come into the gulf and slide up central and west texas and rain for about a week. We do get those starting in June so we can hope that something helps us out.....but nothing too serious.
