Ninety


At the beginning of the month, I noted that we'd gone nearly seventy days without rain.  Well.  Today we hit ninety.  As I said before, there have been a few clouds, and a spatter of rain may have hit the windshield once when I was driving around, but at no time has there been a wetting rain.  It has truly been a surprise.  It is hot and dry in southern Utah, but we always have at least one point during the summer when a monsoonal flow moves in and gives us a week or two of rain.  Evidently northern California has no monsoon season.  And the ten day forecast?  Sunshine.  The Susan River, at any rate, still contains a refreshing trickle.
