How's your weather treating you?

Yes full warranty but I'm not impress with Generac so far as mechanical. Luckily, I haven't need it when it's been broke
Mine is at least 15 years old. Has the older rectangular, metal body, not the current rounded plastic. Haven’t had any problems like that. Starts every week for the self test.
 
We got a smidge over 1/8" of rain yesterday, according to my little weather station thing. The TV guy reported closer to half inch but I don't know where he gets his measurement. I was hoping for more. It even snowed a little in the higher peaks of the Cascades. There's a chance for another front tomorrow. I'm sure the fire fighters loved it, other than turning everything to mud.

An 1/8" would have done nothing mud wise, however a 1/2" would surely impact things and make some mud possible. Hope you guys get more.
 
Since we were supposed to get some rain starting at 2pm yesterday, I made a dump run with a friend. He realized he'd left his phone on his quad and he was nervous the whole trip, It was about 1PM when we left the house. At the dump, about 1:30, the downpour started. We each got about maybe 10-12 drops while there. When we got back home, it was dryer than when we left.
It's supposed to rain again today at 2 PM. It just might happen as the sky around Tucson was real cloudy this morning, but the report states the sky will clear between 10 AM and 1PM with broken clouds from 1 to 2 and then rain. Yep, you bet. ........... Nubs

Had formidable clouds pretty much all day, but not a drop. Our sunset. That was pretty much only one cloud near my house. The ones in the background are at least 5-6 miles away and heading Northeast from me.

Went into the desert again, and got another load of Cholla, this time, all Versecolor. Will post pics in the free wood thread.

We love our green chilis but my wife is a snob. She must have Hatch.
Hatch chilies are great. I've stopped there numerous times to get about 25 pounds to give to friends while going out east. Gotten a lot for myself on the return trip. They also have good Pecans. ............. Nubs

We always used to get Hatch, but it seemed to be not as flavorful as it used to be. This is from Pueblo. I would love to try Lemitar chile if it was more readily available.
 
Yeah, looks like it tracked a little farther east than projected so Kauai and Niihau got more wind than hoped.
 
Love bugs have been killing it for the last week just to add pain to the misery of this summer’s humidity.
 
Three days ago we got 1 1/2" in about an hour, and the next day it started dripping about 10am. Yesterday when I looked at my rain gauge, there was over an inch. Yesterday, we had some clouds but pretty much clear sky, and this morning, not a cloud in sight. ............ Nubs
 
We were camping in northern Colorado and got poured on almost every day. We came home Thursday, we were tired of looking at each other in the trailer. Had not seen that much rain in years. Really good to see and I am not complaining, just saying what we had. Still showers around us at home but nothing like that. The total fire ban was even lifted for the first time this year up there. Still Stage one, no open burning but at least you could have a fire in the campground fire pit.

Nephew wasn't too far (as the crow flies) from you hunting in Wyoming. He was southwest of Bridger Peak elk hunting with bow. Same complaints as you, everything was wet and hard to dry clothes. He sent lots of great pics though, including many where the clouds were moving in below where he was hunting.
 
Forecast from hurricane polo remnants says we could get up to three inches of rain in the next couple of days. That's almost half of the yearly average here.
