Well we certainly did need the rain….they did say it was coming maybe over the weekend, maybe during the week. So it started earlier this evening ….. The garden will love it and it has saved me from watering the gardens tonight. I wonder how long it will rain for ….. What’s your weather doing?

We got a nice thunderstorm late this afternoon, which was also much needed! It only lasted for about 2 hours. We have another good chance for another one tomorrow afternoon. I just hope the electricity doesn't go out tomorrow like it did today.

@traceyjayne We’ve had rain all day, not lashing down but heavy and persistent. Now there’s wind gusting. This morning dense mist hung about for quite a while. I’m loving it all.

We had 17 ml yesterday which equates to 68 points. It will keep the gardens going for a day or two.
