Rain

[GDub]

Here in "sunny" Northern California we get the yearly deluge or two. I doesn't rain for 6 months so the ground gets really parched and dry. Then the rains come--sometimes with a bang, sometimes with a whimper. For the most part we get light rains for a couple of days, but sometimes it bangs and we get LOTS of flooding and mudslides and fallen trees, etc. In between the sunny, warmish days return and the grass grows like green blades from Hell (I swear you can hear it growing). Sun sun sun, RAIN, sun sun rain... I call it "schizophrenic weather." Here's a CA heavy rain pic I've saved for posterity:
