Much warmer last night after a very windy one. 50f at 5 am and warmed up nicely by 7:30 when the sun came out, but only got to 64f today. But before noon the winds picked up pretty major steady at 25 mph and gusts to 45 mph with some dust in the distance. We did enjoy some outside reading sheltered from the wind and about 4 o'clock we began to have a bit of rain. Not hard rains just enough to keep the dust down.
Sure glad we were not on the highways today I-10 was very heavy traffic whenever I drove into town the lineups coming off the highway backed up all the way down the ramps. Most coming into town for fuel. They were lined up at all the gas stations in town. Cheapest fuel this side of California.
you have to go to Silly Al's for their Pizza it is excellent |
a bit of dust over yonder this afternoon |
even a faint rainbow after a bit |
1/2 inch rain, drops 1/2 inch apart |
kinda not so nice |
tasty |
And the addition of our 2nd solar panel sure does make a big difference. We now have 230 watts of power and even overcast for a while our batteries did get a full charge today.
Your rain has moved into our town. Sure glad we didnt have your wind. Going to be rather cool this next week. Hope it warms back up.
ReplyDeleteYes hope it warms up again soon.
DeleteCold with some rain in San Diego also, but at least we made it home ahead of the weather change! Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteWe can be warm , especially nicer when the sun is shining.
DeleteFirst time I have ever seen rain in Q. Glad you can be comfy and warm inside.
ReplyDeleteOnly rained for a short time and will be fine now. at least we don't have snow.
DeleteI've always enjoyed that kind of weather... a couch, a good book and a kitty on my lap. I liked the rainbow... nice!
ReplyDeleteWe always have things we can do, books to read, meals to cook, maybe even turn on the TV (that's rare). to play a game.
DeleteOh yummy pizza at Al's.
ReplyDeleteWe were at the Q during a terrible rain storm. What a mess, but it didn't last long. The sun came out, and it dried up very quickly.
It didn't last long here either, it will dry up and be dusty again, just the way we like it.
DeleteWe were recipients of some rain last evening. It was enough to wet the pavement.
ReplyDeleteThe wind was not an issue because we were glued to our TV set watching one of the best ever CFL Grey Cup games.
The wind died down here last night after the rain.
DeleteSounds like a little bit of Canadian weather followed you! :cD
ReplyDeleteOnly for a few minutes, at least it is not too cold like back home.
DeleteWe had spatterings of rain here also in Bullhead City but it was still around 62F. The sun would make a huge difference if it came out. The rainbowwas a nice touch as well here.
ReplyDeleteThe sun makes a huge difference, soon will be nice again.
DeleteLove Silly Al's. We had some of that wind and rain last night. I wish you had kept it closer to you than sending it in our direction. :)
ReplyDeleteI wish we did not have it at all, but it was heading your way.
DeleteThat weather is all over this part of the southwest. We got it in Bakersfield as well and the women in the RV Park affice say it is the first appreciable rain here in five years!
ReplyDeleteI guess what we take what we get, still better than back home.
DeleteRain is rare in Q but strong winds do happen quite often. December and January can get quite cold there too.
ReplyDeleteWe are ready for that and will be moving around no problem.
DeleteYesterday evening, it rained from Phoenix to Quartzsite. The rain stopped as we were driving through Q! What a welcome! Where are you parked?
ReplyDeleteNan we are in La Posa south would love to see you guys, where are you?
