First off Christy I hate to break it to you like this but ............... weather forecasts have been known to be (gasp) WRONG.  

Second if we're in trouble here then it probably won't matter.  I'll sleep well all week.  I think we're in significantly more danger of having a generator walk away than we are of floating away.

Even if the forecast turns out to be right the worst of it is predicted for Phoenix and NE.

We will be high and dry on pavement ;D. Cabellas will be open, and we will work on enriching their coffers ;).

God bless,

It was raining here at 7 too Clifford but it has quit and there's a high overcast that you can almost see through in places.  If you look at the horizon it looks like it might actually start to break up but like BK says - forecasting the weather is a mug's game.

Here at Quartzsite Market Place it's just barely damp. . .we had some very light rain at 3:00 a.m., again around 5, again around 7, but then only sprinkled once or twice during the day for just a teeny bit. .  supposedly it's supposed to rain tommorrow and then again on Thursday, but then again, who really knows.  Christy

If it helps any Grant we wish you were here too.  We had a great day of visiting, troubleshooting and fixing.  I'll get some pix up on my weblog later tonight and maybe tomorrow I'll get some bus porn to post here.

I thought you were supposed to be on a vacation, not getting up early. Or was it you never went to bed? ;D

Post a pic of your new toy when you can! I don't want to wait for TBR 2010 to see it!

Well, I have a confession to make. .  there's few things I like better than the sound of rain on the roof. .. . I don't know why, but I just LOVE that sound of gentle rain on a metal roof.  One of my biggest disappointments with the major remodel we did on our home was we had to go back with asphalt shingles instead of the metal roof we had previously. :'(  I just loved that sound.

I woke up at 3:00 and listened to it rain, and then again a couple of more times, but it was good, it was all good. :D

I'll start a new topic and post a pic of the new purchase here soon. . .that way people can ignore it if they're not interested, as compared to the Quartzsite posts, which will be more pertinent to most of the people here.  Course, you COULD just drive on down here :). . there's still time, ;) ha ha.
