What rain?

According to the little weather icon thingy in the sidebar, you might think we were having a touch of rain or mist or some such precipitation event this morning. But no. As usual, any moisture falling from the sky has gone around us. Dry as a bone here.

And when you look at this weather radar image, you can see that mess of rain that ambled off the coast in recent hours. How is it possible that it could pass right over us and not shed a drop of rain?

Perhaps if I washed the car, watered the lawn, and hung some laundry out on the line....

Weird isn’t it.  Last night, it smelled like rain, just as though it was raining outside, and yet, nothing.  It was so strange.  At least three or four times I thought, oh good, finally some rain.  And nothing, not a drop.  They said it was sprinkling at Fenway, but it must have all stayed there.  Off to the Berkshires until Monday - have a good Labor Day weekend.  Maybe by Tuesday, I can get back to my blog...just have had no time.

We had about 30 seconds of rain. Well, not really rain, but a few raindrops plopped down on the deck. I saw them. They were real. But there was no measurable amount of precipitation. The day’s stats still say 0”. There’s no rain in the forecast for another 10 days. Instead of the rain smell, we had the wet sack of clams smell as if there was a storm coming in off the ocean. The winds kicked up for a couple of hours, too. It came to nothing. Hope you’re having a beautiful Labor Day weekend. Have the leaves started turning out there yet?
