We had a steady heavy rain starting yesterday --early evening through this morning at 7:30 AM. On and off showers are predicted for the rest of the day. Pictured above is the sky at 7:41 AM.
We knew that the farmers market (if any showed up) would be sparse. Many of the farmers pick their vegetables the evening before or early in the morning.
Wishing you all a wonderful Saturday!
your photo made me think you were in my area...cloud and rain are the signatures of the great Pacific Northwest Coast's winter.

That is a beautiful cloud picture. I imagine you are happy for the rain. I think this is the first time I can think of your farmer's market wasn't open. It will help for the crops for the next market. Happy Saturday to you both.

Sharon Lee yes we are very happy! We even did not mind that we were woken up by an alert on possible mud slides somewhere north of us, which did not happen, thankfully. A
Nina Hollander that it was. We have sunny weather right now with clouds hanging around. Going to take a long walk later. A

Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD the salt marshes are full of water, which means we should have great fish this summer. We are expecting 3 days of rain next week one after the other. Perhaps this will be the year that will fill the reservoirs even better. A
Hannah Williams thank you for taking the time to comment. I hope so too, but will be happy if it rains that day. Enjoy your weekend and Quincy sends regards to Chloe...A

A weekend without your farmers market is truly a day without sunshine.

Hi Ron and Alexandra- while that sky is beautiful, it is also ominous!!! We had dark skies and some light rain earlier today but the sun is out now!!!

Good afternoon, Alexandra and Ron - the rain certainly give us pause, doesn't it? A respite of sorts. Let's see what a new day brings. May every surprise be a happy one.
Oh no, tell me it ain’t so Alexandra .
I hope it returns soon

Morning Alexandra.
It rained all day Friday, with high winds and a high of 35º, it was cold. Yesterday a high of 37º with hardly no wind, but it was still cold. Our Farmer's Market won't open until around late March or early April.
Good morning again Alexandra. This is a beautiful shot. Enjoy your day.

Oh, I hate you missed the market but, I'm sure you're enjoying having some much-needed rain!
