April showers bring May flowers!
Looks like those could combine into a very large gulley washer .... We'll
see.

Wish we could get some of it in Southern Baja. Lots of plants/ trees are dying and rancheros are in serious troubles here. One day of rain in about 18
months now.
The grass is always greener....
and so, there is always a better spot in Baja

Good grief, I had heard lack of rain was a problem but I did not realize it was so severe. Has much rain/snow fell in Parque San Martir?

Just have to wait it out. An El Nino is supposed to be setting up.

Haven't heard the term "Gully Washer" in a long time! We need the rain.
The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.

Northbound from Coyote Bay sometime this morning...for San Diego. Looks like we are gonna get wet on the Pacific side.
Oh, well...be nice to smell fresh rain and roadside blooms.
Would rather pass on any flooded vados!
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

The grass is always greener....
