Orange Dawn
Gas Station parking lot
Don’t be fooled, that pond in the parking lot of the local gas station is 2 to 3 feet deep (0.61 to 0.91 meters) from almost an inch of rain last night.

Reflections On An Inch Of Rain
Off Center & Not Even 
That was some storm last night! Up here I got almost an inch and a half. But what really stands out to me is the thunder. It was some of the loudest I have ever heard. It sounded like the lightning was directly over my house.
We needed the rain and I am glad that monsoon season is here.
I agree on the thunder. It was really loud and sounded close. Thanks, Susan.
lucky things!
Lucky things
Thanks, Couriers.
TImothy I wish I could send you some of the bucketloads that have fallen here this week.
and today looks like there’s gonna be more.. We get too much you get too little. damned unfair
It certainly is unfair. Thanks, Shey.
Water everywhere but not a drop with fluoride in it.
I’ve never had floride from out well water. Thanks, Hally.
When I was a kid I spent summers on grandma and grandpa’s farm. They had a well. You had to drop a bucket down hundreds of feet and get the purest water , so sweet. Soon that got water in the farmhouse. I had so many cavities as a child, I’m thankful for fluoride . Of course Fl is removing fluoride from the water. Crazy RFK Jr.
Most of my friends who grew up out here on well water didn’t have cavities. I haven’t had a cavity in years. I think it has to do more with what you eat. Or maybe the arsenic in our water works like fluoride. Choose your poison, I suppose.
Fluoride is proven to protect one’s teeth. Our children will not have the opportunity to keep their teeth nice. Even the dentist who could benefit from this are saying this is wrong. 😑
It seems you’re enjoying the rain. Great photos Tim.
Thanks, Brad.
Great reflections! Great to have rain!
It is great to have some rain. Thanks, Marina.
Two to three feet on the parking lot? That’s a LOT of rain.
Not much soaks in so it’s almost all runoff. Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Wow, what a rainstorm you had!! ☔️🌺
Thanks, Samantha.
Buy petrol and have a quick dip!
I suppose so. Thanks, Geoff.
That is a lot of rain in a short period of time. 2 to 3 feet deep is a lot! We are not getting any up here right now, but the cloudy to partly cloudy days is helping keep the temperature down and I can get some outside work done.
That was a lot of rain for here. Thanks Lavinia.
Bushwa! I was not expecting that giant puddle of a parking lot to be well… drowned. Cool reflection though, and I like that turquoise door.
The orange dawn is beautiful. Red sky at morning — sailor (and New Mexican) take warning… Why is it that now I can’t stop thinking about a mimosa? LOL. Hugs.
Haha! Thanks, Teagan. The parking lot has a major depression. You don’t want to drive through that puddle.
We finally got a good rainstorm on Wednesday night. Looking forward to more, I hope!
Maybe we will get a real monsoon season this year. Thanks, Dawn.
Glad you are getting some rain but not the Texas rains that are devastating. 💗
Thanks, Cindy.
1 ” caused that pond?
Crazy. Do you ever get flash floods? xx
That is a lot of rain to come down at one time. We ended up getting a storm here while were up at a dog show – straight lines winds or a narrow tornado ripped a line through our woods sheering 16 inch trees half way up their height for ~300 foot distance – way too close to our house, another 100 feet and I’m looking for contractors. Fortunately, I am just lining up a tree service to take care of it while I’m out of service.
Good for you finding a tree service and not waiting until you can almost walk to tackle those trees. I can imagine you feel like going out there on your leg cart and sawing on them. Thanks, Brian.
Linda has her hands full trying to keep me inside
..nobody puts [Bri] in the corner hehehe
Get a snake to wrap on your cratches and I’ll bet Linda will put you outside. 😁
