Rain: Drizzle Today (April 18, 2011)

It's drizzling this morning, but not really raining. It's more of a mist, actually. The rain gauge overnight showed 0.1 inches--not enough to give the plants much, but rain is in the forecast for the entire week. Now that everything has dried out following an unusually wet March, we could use a good downpour. The rain overnight brings the total at my house for the 2010-2011 rainy season to 35.7 inches. The historical annual average for Santa Rosa is 31.91 inches.
