The creek where I ride mtb is just about completely dry, I've seen it low but never dry in 20 some odd years.

This old feller/gal was looking for some water!

Where I come from, rain is good thing.

I received .13 inches of rain last evening. We need a lot more. It looks pretty dry over the next 2 weeks.

Still at 0 here, maybe a couple of sprinkles Monday ... Maybe

Where has all the rain gone? Bone-dry October strikes much of US

It's as if Mother Nature shut off the rain faucet in the United States in October. More than 100 cities across the nation are reporting their driest October so far.

Studies the last decade or so have shown that the jet stream — the currents of air that move weather systems across the world — is wavier and getting stuck more often, attributing it to human-caused climate change’s extra warming of the Arctic, said Rippey. What’s happening now, especially with an extremely warm Arctic and “feverish ocean temperatures across the North Pacific,” fits the theory well, said Woodwell Climate Research Center senior scientist Jennifer Francis, one of the pioneers of the concept.

Certainly feels like something is stuck

The lawn guys with their leaf blowers are causing dust storms.

We got approx 4 hrs of a soaking downpour yesterday. Any leaf that was still on a tree is now on the ground....LoL

Looks beautiful for the next 4 days
