Latestarter's ramblings/musings/gripes and grumbles.

Sunlight "peeked" through the cloud cover for about an hour here late today before setting. Was soooooo nice to see! The heart of the "beast" has moved up into central AR now and extends NE into MO, IL, IN and starting toward OH. Another clump is centered over NW MS.

I wonder if @goatgurl 's pond has finally refilled? My guess would be "if not completely, then substantially". Looks like the tail extends parallel to & ~75 miles west of I-35. It's not "wet" right now but I'm guessing since they forecast 100% chance of rain tomorrow, that it's gonna pick up (and dump) moisture as it moves eastward. Fingers crossed they're right and tomorrow sees the end of this. Supposed to have a couple of nice days starting Sunday.

Yeh, it is suppose to be a gully-washer coming thru here and exiting before daylight on Sun....a couple of days of some sun and then another torrent coming on Wed...the sun "Peeped" at us some thru the afternoon, but then it clouded up before sundown....there are suppose to be a chance of some tornados thru here tomorrow, but more isolated than widespread.

We got 3" from the one front but the other two completely passed us by. I'm not griping though but this has been an extremely wet winter even for us where it's normal.

We've had 5 1/2" and more coming tomorrow. The chicken and sheep yards are slop. The driveway actually has soft gooshy places. Creeks are full. The fog never lifted today, this evening it got so bad we couldn't see the road, could barely make out the garden fence.

Very foggy and damp here as well. So wet and the air has dried and cooled a bit. Funny... air has "dried" but is near 100% humidity... I don't know, you tell me. My creek is still flowing but below the bank now. I still have geysers coming up out of the ground where the water has filled vole/mole tunnels and run down hill. The goats have some firm ground in the pen to stand/lay on. They ate like pigs at dinner time.

A beautiful day here, sunny but still breezy & cool enough to open all the windows.
More ugly weather on the way tho the next 4-5 days don't look as bad as the last 3-4.

Still overcast here, but there are hints of blue in the sky and occasionally I can tell where the sun is. I guess that's something. The fog yesterday afternoon and evening was crazy. We have folks out for a regular Friday-night thing and I had to go stand at the end of the driveway with a blinky light because they couldn't find it in the dark and fog. It was thick. Supposedly we'll see the sun tomorrow.

Rained sporadically this morning..lightly for the most part. Overcast and breezy. The South wind is pretty cool. Windows open again, but likely to get a bit muggy later..I need to do some serious ditch work but it's just too muddy for the tractor and the backhoe is way to heavy to even move with the ground like it is. .

 

[Latestarter]

Rolled over very early and saw the moon in the western sky. By the time I woke/got up, it was heavy overcast an "dripping" rain. Another ugly, gray, wet day here. Supposed to clear tonight and partly sunny for the next several days, then back into the wet.

Yep, we need to move our chicken coop (on skids) to fresh pasture, but as soft as the ground is right now they're just going to have to wait. Hopefully things will dry out enough by tomorrow afternoon.
