Watering

‍‍כג טבת ה תשל - Monday, May 11th, 2009

I woke up this morning and decided to do some watering. There was considerable dew on the grass but I don’t think it rained recently. We have Mile Hi coming sometime today and it is not supposed to be a rainy day so I decided it was a good idea to run the water a bit [...]

Drizzle

Mid-mow it started to drizzle. It wasn’t much while I was mowing but shortly after I finished it turned into a very short rain.

Mowing

The grass is finally dry enough that I can mow. It appeared to us that Mile Hi Aeration may have aerated but it we couldn’t find any sign of seeding on our lawn so they are coming back tomorrow sometime (supposedly) to seed again. I decided that it was important to get out the mower [...]

Rain

When I woke up this morning is was still drizzling but it was also clear that the rain overnight was strong enough that there was no need to water this morning.

Looks like this may be the real thing this time. It’s actually raining. Still not very hard rain but enough that windshield wipers are required.

Not sure this counts as actual rain. It seems to be drizzling. We’ll see how long it lasts.

Watering

Because I’m attending a CLE today I didn’t have to leave the house quite so early so I didn’t start the watering until half past six. There’s a report that it may rain. One can only hope.

Watering

Looks like summer weather is upon us. Yesterday it was in the mid to high 70s and today it’s likely to be the same or even warmer. I was out early with the morning watering. I realized that it’s so dark I can’t tell what it is I’m watering when I start the sprinkler but [...]

Watering

Once again–no rain yesterday. Weather reports in Denver are about as reliable as an American car manufacturer making the right decision about what sort of car to develop. (Hummer for civilians? Really?) Consequently, up pre-sunrise and watering.

Thunder Showers

‍‍יב אייר ה תשסט - Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

Weather man reports 40% or higher chance of thunder showers today. Adding thunder is just the sort of bluster that gets my hopes up about percipitation. We’ll see.
