Oma 1,064 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 We just had this long....really long....low rumbling sound of thunder. Sheesh...it's been so long I didn't recognize what it was at first. Even Pepper (dog) ran over to me and looked at me as if saying "what the heck was that?". We ran out and moved all the patio cushions inside the shed just in case we actually got some rain. Yay! I LOVE days like these and I never get them. I have some sewing to do and this is the PERFECT weather. Yay again! I apologize to any of you who have been deluged with rain lately, but I honestly can't remember the last time it rained here.

Oma 1,064 Posted October 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 I know Kristina. My cousin lives in Rapid City and they just got a couple of feet of snow and a blizzard dumped on them. Destroyed a bunch of their really big trees. Made a huge mess. I felt bad for her, but I absolutely loved the pictures she posted on FB. I used to live in eastern SD and I loved the winters. I used to live in Portland and I loved the rain. Now I live in central CA and I hardly ever see either...just eternal sunshine...well, except for the fog in winter. Could do without the fog. If you get some snow post a couple of pics for us "snow deprived" people. Stay warm and safe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
witha'K'quilting 333 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 thanks oma...we will. i doubt we will see much snow, but it is dropping in temperature really fast. once the rain starts, it will surely change to snow. they are calling for 80% chance.

GrandmaLKB 223 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 We were in dire need of rain up until a few weeks ago and then got some............still below the normal totals for this time of year. Now in October, the grass is as lush and green as it is in May..........July and August it was brown and crunchy. Crazy weather year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Anne from Guam 172 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 I love rainy days for sewing!!! I also love sunny days for sewing!!! I love to sew. When I was in grade school, rainy days meant no recess outside so it was art! Loved rainy days then too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Busy Quilting 442 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Rain - ?????? - what is that??????? So long since we have had a decent fall. BUT rainy season should be here soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RitaR 647 Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 We are so blessed to have some rain the last 2 days. The first day we had over 2", close to 2.5, and yesterday we got 4/10's of an inch. We hadn't had rain in quite a while, so really needed it. It left everything looking so pretty with the dust and gunk washed off. The temps are real low, which I don't mind, in the 60's, and should stay that way into next week. Prayers for others who need it, to get rain, not snow or sleet.. I feel so bad about those in the snow belt this latest storm brought them. Rita Quote Link to post Share on other sites
