Good evening, HJ...thanks...someONE should approve of diversity. d:o)
Are you catching any remnants of Felix or Henrietta?
The remnants of Henrietta blew through last night and this morning...I ‘spect we got a half inch or so and the temps have come way down. I haven’t checked the weather channel or anything, that’s just a supposition on my part.
Interesting...I thought the eastern sky looked dark in my rearview mirror just now. (We were coming home from dinner)
There’s a flood advisory out for the other side of the San Pedro River Valley:
AT 653 PM MST...WEATHER RADAR INDICATED THAT THE STRONGEST STORMS WERE LOCATED ALONG HIGHWAY 80...SOUTH OF TOMBSTONE. RADAR ESTIMATES THAT BETWEEN 0.75 INCHES AND 1.50 INCHES OF RAIN HAS FALLEN ALONG THE NORTHERN FOOTHILLS OF THE MULE MOUNTAINS. RAINFALL RUNOFF WILL CONTINUE TO DRAIN INTO WASHES...WITH LOW WATER CROSSINGS ALONG DAVIS ROAD BETWEEN TOMBSTONE AND MCNEAL LIKELY FILLED WITH RUNNING WATER.
MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.
