March Rain -- Wettest March on Record

Wow, did we make up for a drier than average fall and early winter!  March 2014 was the wettest March on record for the Puget Sound, and they have been keeping records for more than 100 years.  In Woodinville (i.e., our back deck), we measured 9.89" of rain.  And let's just say, we believe it. The rain literally came in waves at times and seemed never ending.  It wasn't the normal Seattle drizzle, it was rain. We survived and are now looking for drier weather.

The mudslide in Oso could definitely use some dry days to help in the recovery of the still missing people.  It is hard to believe that something like that could take out that many people.
