Significant Rainfall

Atmosphere heavy with moisture

We had about .60 inches of rain last night; combined with the .25 we received the day before, we approached one inch of precipitation--quite significant considering our prolonged drought.  Of course, that amount will do almost nothing for severe drought conditions.  The air was thick with humidity this morning, and I perspired quite a lot because there was little wind.  Becca, however, never sweats.
