Title: Loving Hurricane season this year
Post by: HantaYo on October 10, 2014, 02:38:54 PM
The remnants of Hurricane Simon brought .99" of much needed rain yesterday and last night [thunder].  70 % chance of rain today but it looks like the storm is moving east.  Rain was a ground soaking light drizzle most of the time.  So far 2.20" of rain from 3 hurricane remnants this fall.  Otherwise it would of been a extremely dry fall.  Here is hoping for another Baja California tropical storm [cheers1]

Howdy Jeff and WeatherCat western drought watchers,

The remnants of Hurricane Simon brought .99" of much needed rain yesterday and last night [thunder].  70 % chance of rain today but it looks like the storm is moving east.  Rain was a ground soaking light drizzle most of the time.  So far 2.20" of rain from 3 hurricane remnants this fall.  Otherwise it would of been a extremely dry fall.  Here is hoping for another Baja California tropical storm [cheers1]

Good for you!  :)

We got plenty of threats, but never got more than 0.01" out of the relatively active Eastern Pacific hurricane season this year.  Honestly, I am ambivalent to moisture from hurricanes.  We are close enough to the coast that if a hurricane managed to head straight up our way, we would get a very destructive amount of rainfall.

However, so far this rainy season is off to a more promising start.  We got some rain in September and the current forecast is for some rain next week, perhaps even two storms.  If we could get a steady series of moderate storms that would be the equivalent of your ground soaking drizzle.

Here's to wishing for a end of the western droughts! (http://www.canebas.org/Weather/LWC_forum/Custom_emoticons/cheers.gif)
