Haha, water police... with flooding threatening local towns and having already caused 3 riverbank breaches in the last week, we have a bit of an opposite problem!

Re: There's Always The Weather
It's been a wet summer here so far, which means I've not had to water the garden. However, the plants are much smaller than last year.
We've had a few storms come through that pretty much made the south side of town look like a war zone, with trees down all over and roofs damaged, but we didn't get much of that here. There have been some 90F days, but not enough for my taste. Next week looks like hoodie weather again.

Re: There's Always The Weather
It rained again yesterday.
I was going to go to the eye doctor, 30 miles off, with a 1 hour lab, but with the way my sunroof leaks, ah...no.
The wild oyster mushrooms (spring variety) have been fruiting constantly this season. I pulled in almost a pound yesterday - again!
These are pleurotus populinus, not osteatus - which is the autumn variety.
I have had a couple handfuls of cherry tomatoes, and the cucumbers are doing nicely, although on markedly small vines.
My volunteer vine is looking like a gourd. No idea where that came from. The last time I grew gourds was like 5 years ago.
Supposedly, the moon was nice last night. It was cloudy here.
A baby rabbit has also taken up residence inside the fenced garden. There's plenty of old bean plants for him to eat, though, and clover and salad scraps I toss in. The dogs can't get him in there. Problem is, he's too big to get out now!
It was a nice night to visit the 4H "unfair" last night, and the rabbit show made me nostalgic...for about 10 minutes! I raised rabbits until I was about 22, and they had to go. I was down to about 8 at the time, and it was just TOO much work.
It's cooling off on Tuesday - will have to get the hoodies back out with a high of only 72F. I can sleep well in a cold room with a blanket, but I can't take the same temperature outside. When I lay down, I heat up for some reason. Outside moving around, I get cold.

Re: There's Always The Weather
Weird Wonderful Weather.
I got out of bed at my usual late, late time and found the sky was gray.
The air had an almost autumny freshness and a few drops of rain, not drizzle or mist, rain drops could occasionally could be counted on the pavement.
No weather forecast saw it coming. Not Yahoo Weather. Not Dr. George's Old Haunts.
What can be expected when we all rely on the Federal's Weather Bureau and no one thinks locally. <sigh>
It probably was a slop over of Southern Arizona monsoons.
Had it been from the Gulf of Alaska and a tad of Pineapple Express - it might have foretold an early Autumn.
Is there rumor to the truth that the EA :hearthrob Land is under polar assault, again.

In a single word - No.
Typhoon Neoguri was so big that it moved the jet stream and parts of the US will get three to four days of 72 to 75 degree temperatures (daytime) instead of eighty to ninety degree temperature. Fahrenheit of course.
What about California's drought and please don't act like there isn't one. The farmers around Santa Barbara just outbid the entire city of Santa Barbara for water supplies. California is dry and in crisis.
Also, 15 days to "SHARKNADO 2" - - the biggest Wednesday of television ever debuted. Robert Shaw is turning in his grave.

RiverGeodesic dome and closed ecosystem
. But the cats would hate that. And that would be the true "under the dome" story.
