@theporch: yes there was. I get the alerts because I have two families renting there in Eagle Point. As of this morning, all the levels of evac are cancelled. It was pretty nasty!

We got 0.30 inches of rain today! Maybe more tomorrow?

The fires and smoke is the primary reason we left Medford three years ago.

I'm south of The Porch, and yes, my pastures are browning up. We don't get any measurable rain until late fall. We are used to brown as a color. Where Hinotori lives is in a drought classification. "On June 5, 2025, the Department of Ecology (Ecology) issued a Drought Emergency Declaration for...

It was on the news about how much rain Texas has received. So much in so little time. Weird for sure.

I'm on septic and it all goes into a large tank and then percs out. I suppose you have a different system.

Holy crap.

Leftovers last nite. I thawed a monster chicken breast from '22. Need to find a casserole recipe for it.

After several days of up and down weather, I was finally able to use a hose end sprayer to fertilize my veggie beds.

Yesterday was 82 and today is 65 with wind. Brrrrrr. Gonna have soup for lunch.

It misted all day yesterday, below you. We got 0.09 inches of mist. :lol:

Yesterday was 84. Today 62 and drizzly. Tomorrow supposed to be 82.
