Only the second time in about 8 weeks. Thank you Hurricane Hanna remnants!

The smell of the rain on the night air breezing in thru the screened door is awesome.

MMMM!

We are starting to have this thing called "rain" too.  We should be getting more with hurricanes stacked up in the Atlantic like planes over Atlanta.

Glad you're getting some rain.

They're still not sure what Ike is going to do.

I thought it always rained in the PNW.  Isn't that what it's known for?!

heh, i think he may be joking.  But seriously, take our rain!  Summers are typically amazing in the NW, but this year seemed to have much more rain.
I do love year-round green, though.

We havent had rain since July 18th and was only about 1/2 inch.  We started to get rain from the remenants of Gustav...got the ground wet and then it quit.   We need it badly...even though we had 12 inches fall jut north of us late this spring and just really flooded things out.  We still have roads closed because of it.

Yeah, finally got some rain on the Wisconsin-Illinois border too.  We haven't had rain since July either and everything was getting brown and dusty.   The 3-4 inches that fell are already greening things up.

I would hope that the Beautiful Pacific Northwest is known for more than rain....But we are in desperate need of it...I live east of Roseburg Oregon on HWY 138 which leads up into the mountains towards Diamond Lake rec area and Crater lake National Park.  The Hwy was closed yesterday due to a forest fire that jumped the Hwy.  One of a couple of hundred here in Oregon, Northern Cali. and Wash.
