Watching the 5 pm news today and the local station ran a runner along

To bad we couldn't send some to California and other drought states.

I remember being stationed in San Antonio. One thunderstorm
dumped twice a much rain as we get in Nevada all year long.
I also remember you could watch then moving toward you. The
wife and I use to time going to get the mail and get back
just in time!

The PRC (People's Republic of California) in schedules to get
some more dribbles on Friday. If there is enough power left
in the storm, maybe it will overcome the "rain shadow effect"
and make it over the Sierras.
