It’s only been sprinkling so it doesn’t feel like enough but it’s still so nice.

    Absolutely! Ann Arbor has been getting a nice bit of rain this afternoon. It’s a nice change of pace.

    Was just thinking the other day that I picked a hell of a summer to plant my first flower bed. Today was well needed.

    1/10 of an inch in the last three weeks total. This is bonkers. My lawn looks like it is mid August already. It is nice to not have to bring in the sun shade or deck cushions at night though. Saving on lawn mowing too.

      Same. I got real tired of it raining all “winter” and spring. I was hoping it’d rain for a day or two, enough for the crops and gardens and lawns, and go back to dry and sunny. Still waiting on that last part to happen.

    My neighbors sure have. Crops got planted and then no rain, corn just finally started coming up.

    I moved back to the Midwest from Nevada (lived there ~3 years) to get away from the wildfires/dryness. I think I brought it all with me. Sorry, y’all.

    I like that cool weather too. My grass has been dead for a month so I’ll take the sprinkles but am looking forward to steady rain for a few days God willing

      Yeah I almost turned my ac on when we had those hot days but I’ve been able to keep it off and just open window at night, it’s great.
