Got exited because it hasn't really rained here in about 3 years. Said 1.5 inches per hr was possible. Sat on the porch and waited. Here is what we got LOL!

This used to be a temperate rain forest. Plants are dying, shallow roots and all. Plus all the fires and smoke. Not good. So you guys got none of the desert rains the last 10 months or so?
