The rain continues daily around here. Each morning I expect to see mango trees growing outside my window and monkeys swinging through them. Every day, sometimes morning sometimes afternoon, at least once a day there is a tropical downpour for half an hour to an hour. Some days it just winds up and rains all day. The weather radar is red and yellow and green all over, always a few thunderstorm cells travelling around looking for some place to dump a load of water. The creeks stay full. The little ones are lovely brooks and the larger ones become raging rivers within minutes of the start of the rain.
On the bright side, the lawn and gardens look like it is still May. On the dark side the grass needs cutting every fourth day, and the rain only allows it at its whim.
Needless to say getting out on the lake is impossible. Each time we try the radar suggests plenty of wind, lightening, and rain will join us.
The result - fishing withdrawal. Guess I will have to get into researching the history of weather around here. So far we have broken the record lows many days this summer, more to come.
