The Water Wars…9.5”/60 Days

Monday night brought nearly an inch of rain to Minnetonka. In the last 60 days we have seen 9.65” of rain (2.5” in May, 6.25” in June, and nearly 1” already this month). The rain days have been spread across the calendar fairly evenly keeping the site of the “L” Shaped House wet and muddy pretty much all summer. Combined with the “lost October” last fall these rains have cost us a lot of time…especially on the driveway building project.

Near the end of this entry in Paul Huttner’s Updraft Blog he talks about the tropical conditions we are enduring this summer and possibility of some relief around the corner…Oh! I hope he is right

 The sweaty air mass will linger through Wednesday, before a drier Canadian air mass eases in Thursday and Friday, bringing relief to sweaty Minnesotans.
