Been a wet one----------

Once it started, it stayed for a while. The weather pattern brought in a front that hung over south Florida, and RAINED!!! We had 2.75 inches by Thursday morning, another 1.75 by Friday morning, followed by a good 2 more on Saturday, and .6-.7 added on Saturday. Totaled up to 7+ inches, with a bright, sunny, windy, day today. And it came steadily enough that I think a lot soaked in, not running away. Yard looks much better now.

It did not make up for the total deficit, as we were low by 14-15 inches or so, since last November, but it sure was great. Not all areas got the same, (typical of Florida,) but we were fortunate this time. Now to get the mower fired up! Glad we get ours in liquid form. That would have made a LOT of snow to shovel, plow, blow, and fuss at.
