| Raindrops on |
We had light rain showers on Saturday evening and on Sunday. Such a blessing!

Other areas might have received more and heavier rain, but, we had less than 0.5 inches of rain in my area. Which, considering the fact that we've only had about 0.02 inches of rain since the end of May up till now, is not at all bad!

Sunday's daytime high was only 47F, which is very low for us. But, the air felt fresh when I went outside to check on the garden and to take pictures.
The rain was good for the garden, although this iris looked a bit water logged:

This weekend, I am grateful for the much needed rain!
Yeah for the rain, which will certainly give the firefighters some welcome relief. Fabulous photos of raindrops :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the rain was much needed. Thank you, Mary-Lou. :)
DeleteBesides giving the plants a much needed drink, I'm sure that the rain helped clean the air of the smoke. And it makes beautiful pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the air quality is really good, today.
DeleteThank you. :)
Oh that is wonderful! I hope there's more rain for you today.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Celie; today is mostly sunny, in my area, but, I was happy we had some rain. :)
DeleteHooray for the rain!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Anne. It was much needed!
DeleteI was worried when I didn't see a post from you. Hurrah for rain! The plants will be grateful, but I do hope it won't cause any flooding. How is the situation now with the fires? Xx
ReplyDeleteSorry, Jules, didn't mean to worry you. I started writing two posts over the weekend, but, didn't finish them!
DeleteThe rain was wonderful; some areas received over 1.6 inches and other areas, including where I live, received under half an inch.
The three major fires in the Los Angeles area are over 90% contained, which is very good news. There are other fires in other areas of the state, though.
Petrichor - the scent that you get after rain.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like your garden was thoroughly refreshed. Sending hugs x
Thank you, Lyssa! I've learned a new word!
DeleteThe garden received a good drink of water!
Beautiful rain photos! Our high was 47 today, which is high for us after our colder weather. Low for you is high for us! Glad you got rain. andrea
ReplyDeleteThank you, Andrea. It's funny how we feel the same temperature as warm or cold depending on what we are used to, isn't it? :)
DeleteHow lovely to see the photos of all the raindrops!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bushlady. :)
DeleteLovely photos. Glad you got some rain! Hopefully that will stop the fires.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sharon. The rain helped with the fires although it led to some flooding in areas and mud slides.
