The Gulch’s weather likes its drama

Last week’s heatwave ended with a whole series of bangs, exactly as expected. A thunderboomer cell built gradually and then mostly went off to the NE to do its thing. We got not much more than a heavy sprinkle here, but a lovely (relatively) cool breeze that brought the temperature down 20^o.

I went to bed early and slept all the way through for nine hours, and woke feeling refreshed for once.

Some folks say it’ll be a wet Monsoon, some say not, I say anybody who tries to predict the weather around here is taking a sucker’s bet. But I do believe I’m going to go get my good tarp from Landlady’s place and spread it on the bedroom floor.
