Amazing storm in Bend today. Over .5-.75” across a lot of town. Near quarter size hail, tons of CG, and even hail fog. Going on almost two hours of hearing thunder.
Out here timing of the rain is more important than quantity for the vegetation. 2019 was a much drier than normal year here and yet it was by far the most lush and green summer in the last decade. 2022 was a wetter than normal year with a 5 month dry spell through the warm season and trees were dying. We could have received 60 inches of rain in March 2022 and it would have been just as bad by October.
Let’s just assume that below average rainfall is the same for water supply as average or above. I mean even when we hit average it just feels like too much rain to me, personally.
