Yesterday evening, we had some moderate to heavy rain with a little thunder.  It left a little over 1/3 of an inch in my gauge, and watered down the dust from the road nicely.  Today we could see temps nearing 70°F and maybe a little more rain.  Prayers for the people in Cole and Shawnee, OK.  I have a Facebook friend who lives near Shawnee, but thankfully he was missed and is okay.  The tornadoes have been plentiful this year so far.  I hope it doesn’t last all spring.  I’m hearing that there could be another round coming tomorrow and again next week.  Enough already.
