Second day straight of rain. And it's a slow steady heavier-than-a-drizzle, but not a downpour. You know, the awesome soak-up-into-the-ground type rain? We got lucky, it didn't snow much in my area. Some parts of the metro got 2-4" and in the mountains there was 12-18" of the wet sloppy snow. It's tearing up the roads (I70 has been shut down due to potholes all over the place, but that is such a crappy road through town, it needs to be shut down 100% and repaved for the full 60 miles in town, not to mention replacing like 10 of the bridges that shed concrete every time a rig drives on it), but we need it so desperately. Supposed to fade out this afternoon (this storm's gonna be here for a while.. it's still blowing west and that means it gets stuck on the mountains and just bounces off them right onto the metro) but another pass of moisture this weekend. This is gonna SO help my new roses & lilacs...
