la Nina rears her ugly head

You can send it over here if you don't want it. ;)

We haven't gotten anything in a while now (other than some mist, and a short bit of sprinkles, in the last system. I forget when that was exactly, a week or two ago?). Was a while before that for the last significant anything.

Needs more water for the springy thingy. ;)

Thunder and lightning around 6:00am woke me up as the front passed. That's very rare around here.
1.75" since yesterday. So about 4x the average for May so far. More coming tomorrow night.
 
Went to the Anza Borrego Desert over thee weekend since it was the only place in the socal area without precipitation. 90+ degrees was a little warm though.
