An Unusual Day


Rain is rare in southern Utah, especially in 2018.  Before October began, in fact, it had been more than 40 days since the last wetting rain.  Even when it does come, rain normally arrives in brief, violent showers.  It is, therefore, extremely unusual to have several hours of steady rain.  It is even more unusual to have a steady rain that continues for 24, or even 36, hours.  It is currently raining at The Homestead, as it has done since I got up yesterdaya long, steady, 40-degree drizzle.  Very unusual.
