Rain in Paradise! It's pouring as I write this, and the weather radar shows lots more headed our way. The forecast has significant precipitation between last night and this coming Thursday, alternating between snow and rain. All of this is with temperatures above freezing, so presumably the “snow” will be more like slush, melting shortly after hitting the ground.
We drove up to Porcupine Reservoir yesterday morning. It's just a few miles from our home, and is the source for our irrigation water. It's filling up nicely, up several feet over the past couple of days. This rain will aid in that, reassuring all the local farmers. It will also ensure a very green spring for us – and hopefully a bumper crop of wildflowers in the mountains...
