Rain rain please go away. It has been raining for a couple of days now and haven't been able to get out to do anything. Don't want to have to go anywhere but would love to get the garden done. But it is raining so bad our little ditch in the back of the house is running full. And it looks like it will rain for another week! What kind of weather are you having?

Hi Asliah. It rained for 7 days straight and then stopped for 2 days and rained for another 2 days. It is now raining and is supposed to rain till later this evening. But then it is going to clear up again and stay sunny till after the weekend. I am sick of the rain. I did get a chance to plant my peppers today and we got most of the yard mowed. We also got our paying lawn mowing job done today. I thank God we had 2 days of no rain so we could get all the work we had to do done.

It was thunder storming and raining yesterday. Today is is cool and warm right now. It is about 71 degrees. We are supposed to get more rain on Thursday, I think. It rained last Friday here in the town that I live in. I hope that the rain slacks up so that you can go out and do some planting in your garden. I hope that you all are not going to get a flood with all of this rain. I hope that the rain will go away, so that you all can see the beautiful sunshine for another day.

Hi Cream my friend and thank you for your kind wishes for us. We did finally get a day of sun yesterday and it was nice we did get out but couldn't work in the yard. The ground is soaked and there is flooding everywhere. Thank God we live up on a hill sort of so we won't get flooded unless it rains like it did when Noah was on the ark.....LOL Was actually nice enough to wear shorts.

Hi Thoroughrob. The weather man said this is the wet's season we have had since the early 1800's . The rain did stop yesterday but is coming back today. We did get out of the house to see what kinds of damage that is around us. The little creek down the street from us is like a roaring river instead of a small creek that it is normally.

It has been overcast, but only little bits of rain. We need more in Kansas and in Oklahoma as well.

Hi GG. Arkansas was having tornadoes last night just over the state line thought we was going to get that too. But thank God we didn't get any of that. I wish this rain would go somewhere else and let our part of the state dry out for a few days. But looks like it is here to stay at least till next Thursday.

It's sunny and hot here in the Philippines. The perfect time to go out and have a picnic at the park. At the same time, it's the summer break for students so we can travel and maybe go to the beach.

Well, as predicted it has been a beautiful weekend here. Yesterday, I worked and then my husband and I drove to the falls about 2 hours away. It was the first time I can remember ever going to this fall. I've been to several others. It was an awsome site to see how powerful the water comes off that ledge. After we walked around the falls, we went to the fish hatchery. We only seen two sucker fish. The chart said it would another month before the Chinook start their trek up the ladder. I think we will go back then. Happy Easter and Best Wishes!

I encountered the similar weather last month.it's raining for more than a week in a row,and it's very cold,I could do nothing but complaining.
But recently it has been so fine.it's warm or a little hot,and the rain is fast.Last Friday morning there was a morderate rain,but it stopped at 10 o'clock or so.The soil is a little muddy,but it's so cool,and on Saturday afternoon I could spray foliar fertilizer for my orange trees!And this morning it's cloudy and cool,it's good for the trees to obsorb fertilizer,that's great!

Hi Oldsix. I can't stand it been stuck in the house now since Friday and it looks like it will be here till next Thursday. I have done all the cleaning and stuff you put off till these rainy days. I don't like sitting around and doing nothing I want to be busy and keep my mind on all the things I can do. Thinking positive is a good thing but this rain is driving me nuts. Am praying the weather man is wrong about how long this will last. I am serious we have a foot and a half ditch out side of our kitchen window and it has been running so fast looks like a creek....LOL Don't want to float away....LOL
