Sort of.
The sky was promising late in the afternoon. But the rain fell beyond those mountains in the distance and all we got was a few drops. (By the way, sorry about the power lines.)
There was a lot of hue and cry on the local television channels and, to give them their due, some areas of The Valley got some heavy rain for a few minutes. But here? Nada.
Still the temperature cooled 10 or 12 degrees and there is hope for the coming days.
Meantime, all we have is some pretty skies.
And this too shall shall pass.....hopefully! (To make way for the much-needed rain.)
ReplyDeleteHopefully!
DeleteWe have been dry here for over a week. And it's nice.
ReplyDeleteTry it for 100 days!
Delete"Close, but no cigar" as they say. We've had clouds and rain and dramaticaly (30 degrees) cooler weather here. I know it won't last, but I'm sure enjoying it for now. ;)

Send it West, young man!
DeleteOur rain started yesterday aft in a 15 min burst, then on & off the rest of the eve. unofficial rain gauge (buckets) measured around a quarter of an inch thru 5am this morning. 80% chance of more rain here thru 8pm. we'll see....
ReplyDeleteBut where are you, o lucky person?
DeleteLove the luminous quality of your sky photographs.
ReplyDeleteThank you but I had nothing to do with it.
DeleteI was so disappointed last night. I was hoping for some rain and nothing happened. I didn't even see any distant lightening. Then, when I watched the 10:00 news, I thought what is up with that? How did Chandler and Ahwatuckee luck out? Well, on second thought, those people with uprooted trees might not feel so lucky.
ReplyDeleteYup. I think it got within about half a mile from me but all I got was a few drops.
DeleteOh your extra heat came here for the week - thanks for the gift! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's my pleasure. And today at 11 a.m., it's only 98 degrees here! Better start a fire.
