There is now a tiny hope for some precipitation next Tuesday…it’s a small, very small percentage, but it’s out there. I think after days and days of 90 or near 90 degree days everyone will be eager for that small chance to materialize. Who knows? By then it might have evaporated, but we can hope.

What is scaring me is the fools busy planning on shooting of fireworks during this exceptionally dry period. Fire danger is going to be a very real problem. And there are always fools unable to look at the big picture while they’re self-serving their own plans. Most years we are lucky enough to get some sort of rain somewhere around the holiday to help alleviate the problem, but this year, not a chance in the world of Mother Nature offering any assistance. We’ll have to depend on luck I reckon.
