Do you think the 95 North from Yuma to the Q is ok?

[luvrbus]

Mike, I checked with the AZ DOT just a few low water crossing to cross with caution other than those it is ok pay attention to the high water gauge at the low areas and drive safe


good luck

For those who are absent here, last night rain washed our bus clean and shine, and holding down desert dust calm and clean. The sun is to pup out of morning haze in any minute. This morning donut and coffee gathering executed as planed and successfully.
This is going to be another great day in Quartzsite.
Wherever you are, have a fantastic day.

that's just too weird, the Doppler shows the cloud sparting just as it reaches Q

The sun was out for a while but its hiding again and the wind is getting up a bit now.  I've seen worse - a lot worse as a matter of fact.  I've been watching Accuweather since this thread started and it has consistently said that Thursday would be the worst day of the week.  What "worst" would consist of has changed almost daily but Thursday has consistently been the worst predicted day for Q.  The rain really hasn't amounted to anything yet but the wind is a bit annoying.  Mind you, I've never been a fan of wind so I might not be an impartial reporter.

[luvrbus]

If you don't get the thunder storms your ok here in the desert with a slow rain it will run off but we got hit with thunder storms and a lot of water.
You wait about 2 weeks this place will be beautiful when the plants flower 


good luck

It sure as heck raining here in Yuma and has done so most of the night. The wind joined in the AM to make it more interesting. I had to get some wooden blocks for stepping stones to the bus door. Jerry

It should be an interesting trip down to the Q, with what ever amount of rain we encounter, it will be propelled by what is forcasted to be 20-30mph gust to 45. Thank goodness it is not snow.
