I opened up the rain gauge and found a spider living inside. After evicting it my gauge is working again. .3 inches after the last wave. It doesn't take much to close 50 so I'm thinking you're right.
craig333 said:Already down to 1-3 inches and "moderate to heavy" rain. Seems they like to start out with a worst case scenario rather than underestimating. Still its a nice storm and every bit helps.
craig333 said:That applies to all the fires, not just Caldor. Even if the storm wimps out it still won't take much in the burn area to cause problems.
.57 at my my place so far.
craig333 said:They're sticking with their 2-4 inches and up to 50mph winds. Time to batten down the hatches and prepare for the worst. I'll go check on my dads house and make sure he's ready. Definitely not time to go camping!
craig333 said:1.5 inches here and its still soaking in. A couple miles north of me a buddy is reporting 2.5". Interesting how must difference just a few miles makes.
craig333 said:I just got an alert on my cell phone advising me to seek shelter by 2pm. That's a first. I've been hunkering down all morning. Good time to still be a football fan. 2.03 and that doesn't count the storms earlier in the week.
craig333 said:Over 4.2 inches so far. Finally a storm that outperfoms expectations.
Craig... Your in it now!!! Still got until tomorrow till noon to go. Were up to 2 Inch's within 24 hours. Wow, that is a lot for us! That is more than we got for the whole year. Good to see it water the vegetation and trees. Been years since I seen it rain like this here.
