There was some nice lightning driving into the office this morning. I had just about made it in when the heavens opened. Hopefully it rains all day and the garden gets a good watering.

We didn't buy any in the end, we were getting low but held out. If the forecast holds we may be full by weeks end.

The rain gauge had a good inch of rain this morning from the last 24 hours. Good for the garden, the spring rain that never came.
