Someone left the Jake out in the rain again
When Jake and I got home from our walk in the rain last night, the rain gauge showed 1.75 inches for the month. When I left for my walk at 5:25 this morning, the rain gauge showed 1.84 inches. When I got home at 7:00 it showed 2.0 inches. The rain gauge currently shows 2.71 inches of rain for September. It’s been several years since we received that much rain in one month. It’s supposed to rain Thursday and Friday, also. It seems Super El Niño may have finally arrived.

Rio Grande at 5:30 a.m. this morning running about 4 feet higher than the night before.
We got a major thunderstorm at midnight last night that dumped almost 3/4 of an inch of rain. When I got up, the rain gauge showed double the amount of rain from when I went to bed. We now have 1.43 inches of rain for the month. I did another five-mile walk in the rain again this morning.
Clouds on the Sandias at dawn
The Rio Grande at 7:00 a.m. this morning up another 2 or more feet from 5:30 a.m.
The place where I stepped down to take the 5:30 a.m. photo was under water at 7:00 a.m.
Jake met me at the gate and got a short ride to my parking spot when I got home this afternoon.

Sunset
The river had gone down about 4 feet by dusk. The place I step down to take photos was no longer underwater, but too muddy to step on, unless you’re a dog.
Water was still flow the full width of the river at dusk.
Fool In The Rain
I walked five miles in the rain this morning. I didn’t see another soul. Even the parking area near my turn-around point was empty this morning. There are usually one or two cars parked there when I walk by around 6:15 a.m. I was the only fool out walking in the dark, in the rain. We have now received 0.51 inches of rain this month.

Doppel’s not too sure about having a Jake pointing at him.
Loki fell victim to sudden-onset cater mortis. Luckily, it was not catatonic for too long.
