In reply to Badtux. With way too many wildfires...

They opened Tioga Pass (the one through Yosemite) yesterday. Earliest it’s been open since 1978. Usually there’s 20 feet of snow on top of it this time of year. This year… only patches of snow here and there.

It’s going to be a long, hot, dry and dusty summer here in California…

Picky, picky – Badtux. Florida isn’t noted for its snow 😉

We would gladly accept *TWO* feet of your rain, Bryan, as long as it fell as 10 feet of snow on the Sierra Nevada!

Yeah, Kryten, after the first four hours it was a major drag.

Too bad we couldn’t swap about a foot of rain for 20 degrees of heat, Badtux, and both of us would be happier campers. Dr Masters mentioned that during a one hour period in this storm Pensacola got 2½ times as much rain as Witchita, Kansas has received this year.

All I’m getting hit with is heat. It was 94 degrees on Wednesday, 96 degrees on Thursday. Today it “merely” reached 87 degrees. Thankfully the weekend will be much cooler…

Wow! You really are getting hit… I like thunderstorms, but there is such a thing as too much! 😉 Especially when trying to sleep. Earplugs don’t work too well, you feel the lightening & thunder in your bones if it’s close. LOL

Good luck m8! 🙂
