More Rain

The Rio Grande had more water in it at 5:30 a.m. this morning

I walked my five miles in the rain again this morning. The rain gauge showed 0.61 inches of rain when I left, and 0.70 inches when I got back. It stopped raining as I finished my walk, and the rain gauge still shows 0.70 tonight. I thought the rain coming in from the west would make it to us, but it stopped short of delivering any rain tonight. We got some decent light shots while watching and waiting to see if the storm would rain on us.

The moon showed through for a brief moment

Water was flowing the full width of the river tonight.

Although we didn’t get rain from the storm, I got some lightning photos out of it.

  1. I love this post as I look at the rainfall all the time, especially with global warming.

    having spent two years in Texas back when I was a really good runner. I would plan, my long runs around expected storms. It was cooler during storms

    • Since we are at altitude, 1525 meters where I live, and 3353 meters on top of the mountains, our rain is cold and cools things off quickly. We got 1.9 cm of rain overnight, which was great. Thanks, Mark.

  2. Terrific photos, as always, Tim! When I scrolled to the one captioned, “I see dogs in the clouds” (before I read the caption) I would have sworn it was a satellite view of Earth or a map. I saw ocean and continent – I guess it was a ‘negative space’ perspective. But I can see the dogs, too. ~Ed.

  3. Great lightning shots!

    Great one, Laurie!

    Thanks Tim! xx
