Rainy and soggy here in VA

Ringgold, Virginia
April 25, 2017 8:35am CST
Happy Tuesday MyLotters! Hope ya'll are having a good day. Here in Virginia, it's been raining nonstop since Saturday and the rain's still continuing today. I've been mostly staying indoors, although I do have to get outside to take the dogs to the bathroom. I bundle up in my raincoat and boats, yet still get drenched. I do love the rain, but having it nonstop for the past 4 days is too much. On the brightside, the rest of the week it's supposed to clear off and be sunny, so at least it'll dry off some. How's the weather in your neck of the woods?

@JohnRoberts How bad is the wind? Are you having strong gusts?

@dramagirl26 Probably El Nino or Santa Ana winds.

Here in Minnesota it is cloudy and looks like it could start raining any minute. One the plus side, the rain will make the grass green again!

@bailee2 Do you mind the rain? Or do you prefer sunny days?

@bailee2 I also love the rain. It is very relaxing and I call it a perfect day to do some writing. Thunderstorms, however, I could do without.

@dramagirl26 I do like the rain, there is something very peaceful and calming about rainy days. But I am afraid of thunderstorms so I would rather have sun :)

We needed the rain, because we had four days of strong wind and several fires had started in the woods. It rains since yesterday, but I do not complain, as I said we needed it.

@dramagirl26 The fires are all under control, the rain should help now.

@LadyDuck Sometimes rain can be beneficial. Sorry to hear about the strong winds and fires.

@HazySue It's finally moved out of our area, maybe it'll head down your way.

Its in the low sixties right now, and sunny. It's been pretty cool the last couple of nights and mornings, but by the end of the week it is supposed to be warm again.

@thislittlepennyearns It was warm here last week, but with all the rain it's turned colder.

@Kandae11 Four straight days of rain is too much, luckily you got some sunshine to dry it off.
