DEVIL’S DROUGHT
Here is yet another shot of Devil’s Falls, from a couple weeks ago when it was flowing well. Since then we had a couple weeks of ugly dry weather. The spring people may have liked it, but certainly not I, especially this year when we are in such dire straights for snow and rain. Thankfully, it is back to winter this weekend, and we have another storm which will hopefully bring a few feet of snow into the mountains. March normally brings the end of our wet weather, but I am praying it will continue well into April this year.
This year I have been trying not to watch the long range weather forecasts. I hate getting my hopes up and then being so disappointed. On Monday two of the three weather forecast models were predicting we would be getting 12 inches of rain through the end of this weekend. That got my hopes very high. Then the very next day, it was cut back to 4-5 inches. Argh, I hate that so much. This is precisely why I have been trying to keep from watching the forecasts this year. Just trust that the rain will come. God will provide all we need. Yes, the rain is coming.
On Monday I saw another very long range forecast which also got my hopes up. There is a very strong El Nino forming in the Pacific Ocean. It is much too early, and this is exactly why I don’t want to get my hopes too high, but if this comes to fruition, it will indeed be the answer to all our prayers, and finally spell the end of this incredibly nasty drought in California next winter. Keep praying people!
