    We got solid rain today. Over 2" out of this storm, possibly approaching 3". That'll save us some irrigation water for a week or two. I'm expecting to wake up to a white Mt Lukens in the morning.

    Came home and found about 3 gallons of water in the drivers side floorboards, and 2 gallons in the passenger side of the new Jeep. So, I am guessing about 2" here too :laugh:

    Wife and I went up to big bear today to tromp around in the snow. Area around aspen glen parking had 8”, so probably 12” up higher. north side of the lake about 4”. Summit looked to be blowing man made snow all day.
    looking to ride somewhere early tomorrow am, probably SJ my usual after-rain go-to….Anyone think stt/luge will be dry enough?

    35 mph gusts in Simi Valley. I guess I should have planned to ride elsewhere. Maybe I'll just let the wind blow me as far as I want to go then have Jennifer come pick me up.

    I miss riding in this weather. Been raining for 2 days here.
    Now that I'm a semi-responsible adult I don't.

    I grew up drinking that beer... My dad always joked that it was made with the finest polluted water from the Genesee River.

    Alot of rain, wind, and hail last night.
    Going to see if there are any downed trees on the property. Give me an excuse to ride the quad in the mud. . .

    I'm only whining because I'm on vacation. I will probably be sitting in my kit, waiting for a window so I can ride my gravel bike.

    Bring on the rain, green hills, and tacky dirt.
