Drought for the west

[sclancy27]

Just stand that bad boy back up and put a couple stakes in the ground to hold it. Seriously though, that sucks...

It's leaned to that side for years. It survived the 80-90 mph winds we got a month or 2 ago like a champ. Today's wind has a more northerly aspect, old sucker just gave up.

We're supposed to get a decent shot of moisture this weekend, so far it's just wind....View attachment 403790

F’in Spruce. Such a PITA. At least the fence caught it.

Raining now! Also have a very nasty storm heading my way with a tornado warning and the satellite just went out. Sirens in town just went off. House is rattling from the thunder. Still have power, though!

We ended up with several inchs in the last week. Tornado took a roof off a house in the township my BIL works in. He got called out to get it off the road.

"Hey, can you please come and move your roof?" We got missed by the bad weather and got .95 inches of rain. Went from 80 degrees and storms Tuesday to sleet and snow by noon Wednesday. Now they say 1-3 inches of snow Sunday night. Guess my Harley stays parked for a while.

Received an email this afternoon with the subject 'extremely anomalous March heat wave.'

"Many locations in southern California and the Southwest are expected to set records for the earliest 100F readings, in some cases by several weeks. The heat is expected to stretch into much of the Great Basin and central and southern High Plains late next week. In addition, relative humidity will be very low with poor overnight recovery expected for many low elevation areas. Conditions will be more representative of mid-June across the West and into portions of the Plains."

Probably not what many of you were looking for.

El Niño forming already. Hopefully bring some early rain to the Southwest.
