I am in California, and El Nino was a bust for us in Santa Clara County.  I am so disappointed I could cry.  Then the thought of a warming trend, it is too much.  Will it go on like this forever?  We did get some rain, but it never stormed here.  The good part was when it did rain it was a steady rain, usually at night, then a break.  All the water here seemed to go in the ground.  Our one Myrtle tree that hadn't had leaves on it for over a year, did get leaves .  Not  alot, but some, which is a good sign for the tree.

 

I was so hoping for more rain.  Al february it was in the 80's, today was 88 as well.  No rain in the near future here.

It is very warm today (79) for the Pacific Northwest in April.  I think we are going into another hot dry summer.  We are eating dinner on the patio.
