Dew on the cars for the first time this morning!

[ibglowin]

Only us desert southwesterners would get excited over dew on a car!

Its been morning after morning for months now of clear blue sky but this AM we actually have some dark clouds and thunderheads over the mountains at 7:00AM and enough moisture in the air to form some dew.

The monsoonal moisture seems to be right on time to start bringing us some much needed precipitation this week......

Please feel free Mike to take a bit of our moisture.......................


Look at the post I just madeto RZeigler. It shows infection periods due to either rain or extended leaf wetness periods. A LOT of them!

 

[ibglowin]

I was just looking at that! Holy cow......

Man what a labor of love/pain/grief you guys have to go through every year in order to get a good crop......

I guess like they say, if it was easy, everyone would be doing it!

 

[AlFulchino]

dew? dew? dew? you might be having some disease pressure...better go out and check

Feel free to take some of ours as well. It has been raining 4 straight days here. Just a light drizzle with an occasional downpour. Guess it is from that storm out in the Gulf. My grass really needed cut BAD before it started raining. I have one spot in the yard that will probably take a month now to dry up. It is gonna be miserable trying to cut it when it is finally dry enough. BTW, I would love to live in the High Desert. I visited Prescott AZ before and really liked it around there.

Prescott, AZ is indeed a nice place! Its on our list of places should we decide to get out of town once we retire. I do like our 4 seasons though here (including the snow in the Winter!).

Alas, it looks like this morning was just a teaser...... Whatever moisture was around has blown out and its back to 100% blue sky's and a nice 77 degrees F at 2:00PM.

Not bad at all.
