Well, I suppose I'd ignore the Euro since it is the outlier.

I do think it is likely some of the state will get decent rainfall. I hope the places that need the rain the most do get it. I'm okay if nothing falls at our house (which means, of course, that it will fall) because I wanted to get started on painting the house on Sunday or Monday. That pretty much guarantees it will rain here and ruin my plans.

The rest of y'all are on your own. If you want to make it rain at your house and your house doesn't need to be painted, then y'all need to wash your cars or plan to attend an outdoor wedding or something---that will attract all the rain to you.

I hope the parts of west TX and western OK that never get enough rain get some really good rain out of the remnants of Tropical Cyclone Odile.

We're catching the edge of a storm over Stilly and, boy, is it nice and breeeezy. Think I saw the plastic lawn chair float by the window.

I have about got this rain makin down pat. I planted kale and turnips a few days ago and got a nice show to water the seeds in. I started cleaning the garden yesterday and got 1.95" last night, I am about ready to take my skills on the road and make lots of money using the rain to boost crop production and putting out wildfires.

Lol

Larry, I'd like to schedule your traveling road show to come here to southern OK regularly in 2015 and bring us rain once a week every single week next year in June, July and August. I'll feed you all the tomatoes you can eat and can carry back home to Arkansas.

Bon, Breezy sounds nice. We're actually 3 degrees cooler and much cloudier now than we were earlier this morning, so even if the rain misses us, maybe at least it will be cooler and more comfortable than yesterday. The temperature yesterday only hit 94 degrees at our house but the heat index hit 100 and it was just so icky and sticky and humid out there.

There's a reason that April and October are my favorite weather months. Both generally are cool (at least below 90 degrees most days) and sometimes rainy. We're still a couple of weeks away from October, but for the next few days I think the persistent rain pattern might keep our high temperatures in the 80s. I am so ready for that. I'm not really ready for cold nights yet though.
