24. I hope it does rain soon
I remember one summer a couple of years ago in OK that was very hot and very dry, but nothing like what it's apparently been this year (i've sinced moved out of state, but have followed the reports). Here's hoping rain for you soon ...

47. hey thanks
I'm really glad to hear of your rain tonight as well. I know it sucks going through that kind of dry spell. (Even without the threat of fire, all that *dry* tends to sap my soul, personally.) Here's hoping you get enough to make a difference.

:hi:

11. You guys have been red flag for about a month, huh?
I wish we were red flag here. We are going to at least three grass fires a day, and our district is only about 1/4 of the county.

27. I'm in S. Mississippi...we've received a good bit of rain lately...
but we were drought for so long that nothing seems to wet us good enough to stop the grass fires.

I just looked at NOAA, and it appears that y'all are getting a LOT of rain, especially in the Longview area. I'm hoping that we get some of it.

I've been watching the news out of Texas on the rain...you guys really need it. Badly.

We had two little sprinkle showers about 8:15 this evening. and the NWS is saying we have a 40% chance of snow tonight. God I wish it would rain or something.

35. Isn't thunder great after you have a long drought
It's like that here too (like 12" short on rain) and in winter, two weeks ago, we got a thunderstorm. If it had snowed it would have been 12 inches. But we got lightning, thunder and heavy rain!!!!

50. I've forgotten what rain looks like--sigh . . . .
I'd give anything for a big, fat thunderstorm that would scare my dog to death--it would be worth it (I'd take care of her, don't worry). We're just so desperate for rain that I'd take anything right now.

Anyway, congratulations, and if you get too much, could you send some up to Oklahoma?
