Sun's out in So Cal
Finally, sunshine this afternoon. What a mess all that rain made. I've been
doing a constant water change in my pond for about four days now LOL. San Diego Joe 4,000 - 5,000 Gallons. Goldfish, a RES named Colombo and an Oscar. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= East/West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |

The soil is soooo saturated here. We only get about 11" per year, 4" on average to this date and so far this season we have had 12 1/2". I guess that doesn't sound like much to those who get way more rain, but they typically have infrastructure to deal with it. Funny, San Diego is hosting a meteorologists convention this week. At least it will keep them out of the bars! San Diego Joe 4,000 - 5,000 Gallons.

San Diego Joe Hope you're not up against any of those moving hill sides. Oh My!!! Pond wise, be sure and check your KH & pH, you may have to replace buffering with baking soda. ~ jan ~Power to the Porg, Flow On!~ |

And I'm not talking about the alcoholic kind. Here in TN it's been rainy and gloomy for almost a month. It's overcast again today. This is the 1st Dec. I am still feeding my fish and I've had them since 1995. We're having some very strange weather here. -- Carol.... the frugal ponder...

I remember one year in San Berdo when we got 5" in one hour. Never in my
life have I seen anything like that. The water was literally in sheets (rather than drops). It was a once in a lifetime storm I thought... Each year it feels more and more like "We're not in Kansas Toto". Do you get algae bloom this time of year out there from the influx of rain water? "San Diego Joe" wrote in message ...

It's raining regularly this week. My upgraded TT is maturing. Pond is
clearing. Some one got algae bloom from rain water? jedi wrote: I remember one year in San Berdo when we got 5" in one hour. Never in my life have I seen anything like that.

If your pond is getting torrents of rain, keep an eye on the KH, there is
no buffering in rain water. Baking soda will keep your KH up and the filter on line. ~ jan On Tue, 22 Feb 2005 15:00:18 -0800, Sean Dinh wrote: It's raining regularly this week.

We had a tornado watch up in Oceanside today. Unreal! -- __ Elaine T __ __' http://eethomp.com/fish.html '__ |

I was camping two years ago with some friend in western MD, and we got I think it was 2 inches an hour for the entire night. It was the most rain, I've ever seen at one time. -- BV Webporgmaster of iheartmypond.com http://www.iheartmypond.com I'll be leaning on the bus stop post. |
