It has been raining since yesterday. We should get at least 2 inches by the time the storm moves out on Sunday. This is a very warm rain for February, it was 58 at 6:00 AM. Hoping we don't have any flooding or mudslides!
I took the photos below on Wednesday. Also picked a big batch of lettuces and onions before the rain started yesterday. Lots of flowers blooming which I added to my salad.
