Weather ramlings... The weather this year and up until a few days ago has been CRAZY rainy, cold and wet. It just snowed up in the high country last week. Rivers and stream are bursting at their seams. Washouts prevail as rains pounded down relentlessly this year. Gardens are a disaster. Commercial crops, drowned. Basements are flooded and insurance claims are up. But it SURE IS GREEN!
I just checked the long range forecast for the Raid. Looks promising... not perfect but there's still time. I think the trend of cold and wet is over. Last year's weather was not that great. For example, Marty and Nanci rode home as two drowned Raid Rats. Keep yer fingers crossed for this year... the weather is far from normal around these here Kootenay parts!
