Seriously?

It rained.
In the middle of May.
This broke all the records.
Not a thing that normally happens.
Two whole inches just overnight.
Hail and more rain the next day too.
Wind so hard the sun umbrella got tossed off the deck down into the garden.
It smashed into the pomegranate, rhubarb and iris.
All the roses and irises were blooming.
Now that's all mush.
Everything is leafed-out and bending with the weight of the unexpected rain.
What is this going to mean for the fire season?
Now we'll have to do all the weed-whacking Again.

  1. 500% of normal here. Let's hope it doesn't get as hot as last year and the fire season goes by with nothing big.
