Rain Gauge 2009-'10
Arrival and departure of an overnight shower (.01”) from a southern disturbance has lowered temperatures into the 90s and cleared the air for the sweet smell of wet, dry feed and the beginning of a new season, heavy heifers waiting on the moon to calve. Hope for a wet year rides on loose talk of the return of El Niño after three dry years, as buzzards gather early for their thermal glide south.
