Well, all I know is it's an El Nino year which usually means a lot of rain for us. Back in college, I came home for Christmas one year during an El Nino and my parents had sandbags around the well pump! I kind of thought they were exaggerating the situation on the phone but then I saw it with my own eyes.
Today we tied our record high for this day at 88 degrees! Makes me kind of glad I was in the air conditioned office of the dentist. That went fine, by the way. My wallet hurts, but my teeth are better.
