Well a surprise this morning. 69 degrees, 1.15” in the rain gauge this morning. Light drizzle falling. The gods have not forsaken the midlands of SC after all.
We have a blip of potential rain for Friday. Yeah, not betting on it but man do we need that rain. I am now looking up how to do Pagan Ritual Sacrifices in order to apeas the various rain gods just in case it might help.
All Hail Freyr!
Living near Columbia I have already switch to snow denial mode in a feeble attempt to reduce the severity of the inevitable let down. Heck one year it snowed west of me then east along the coast. Felt like I was living in a weather related practical joke. The emotional toll (and resulting liquor expenditures) for every missed snow chance was more than a little frustrating.
Well I am going to get fly fishing lessons Sunday at Davidson River Outfitters. Yeah it’s gonna be rough for fishing but what the hell. I have two teenaged boys who are going to learn the basics with me. Hey a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work.
Well we had a very brief shower here in Chapin SC. I been seeing dust devils lately with it being so darn dry so even a little is appreciated. Of course I am going to Brevard this Sunday to fish on the Davidson River, I hope it's not a wash out. I will fish in the rain so long as its not a thunderstorm.
As much as I am rooting for this to be true. this sounds a lot like our winter discussion of pattern changing snow in the long range kind of thing. I have given up on my lawn (weed patch) and just trying to keep the gardens from getting baked alive.
After a series of winter storms giving us rounds of -> high hopes ->crushing disappointment -> repeat. I am not buying into anything more than 100 hours out and hell this time of year 72 hours is still suspect.
It would be hilarious if this verified. I will try and schedule a test for all of my classes around that time to get the karma aligned to help make it happen. Hey I am willing to do what I can. We lost days due to the fall hurricane around here, now a late season snow storm to cost us a few days and destroy any hope of decent AP-physics scores this year. Yeah that would be classic.
House full of people last night, needed to put the A/C on to make bearable. 74 yesterday and humid as hell, weeds green and growing. I likely have to cut the lawn next weekend.
