Rain!

[Metallover]

We've had so much rain this year... Wow. The corn's supposed to be "Knee high by the 4th of july" but hell, I was in a cornfield yesterday and the corn was at least 5 feet tall. I went to another corn feild and it was over 6 feet tall!

I was playing in a double-header baseball game and it started to rain between the two games. Then it started to RAIN. RAIN. You looked at the rain coming down and it looked like snow. The whole field had 1/2" of water on it. Then I left and had my windsheild wipers and max. Usually on a downpour, that would be enough. I couldn't see crap this time. I've never seen it rain harder in my life.

Umpiring tonight it started "misting" and it did that the whole game. The field looked like a slurry of... mud.

Is it just my area or is everyone else getting tons of rain this year?

Lots in the East. I know there is lots in CO as well. Its usually brown out there w/ the summer heat, but its still all green out there. Personally I love it.

It was a nice 81f today. July is usually hot, humid and muggy. Lovely weather to go outside during lunch and not come back a sticky sweaty mess.

Seattle area - have only had .1" in the last 6 weeks. My lawn is almost completely dormant already (ours up here does that during the summer).
On the news tonight they said statistically, there is only a 10% chance that we will get any rain between now and the end of August....

Here in socal we haven't had rain since november or so. Sucks really bad. I'm a little canadian boy and can't live without rain...

Rainfall seems pretty average up here in Toronto. Probably just me, but if anything, the temperature fluctuations seem a little more common.

We had a pretty dry spring, and now it's been an above average wet summer now... and speaking of rain, we had a HUGE down pour today, something like 3/4" in maybe 10 mins. my yard was a lake, and it is all very well drained. I don't have an eaves-trough because I have a very steep 45 degree roof and very large, would pull it right off... anyways the rain was pouring off the roof in a blanket.

You can forget about rain here in phoenix tomorrow is expected to hit 110*.

Even if it did rain, it might evaporate before hitting the ground!

Dry would be an understatement here in Mississsippi, haven't gotten more than a 1/4" of rain since bout the first of April. Grass crunches under your feet, ponds are turning over, and crops are getting burnt up, and the heat index is 105F.
