Mainecoons Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 OK folks, let's see who is this year's best rainy season prognosticator. Guess what day we will receive the first significant rainfall, 1/2 inch or more, as measured at Steve's weather station in Riberas. I'll start with May 28.

osuespirit Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 I will say May 29th. That was the date of the first thunderstorm last year. Lets hope one of us is right as that is not too far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruidoso Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 My arrival date is Jun 29 in late afternoon and don't want to miss the first loud thunderstorm of the season. Don't sleep well anyway. Probably just wishful thinking but not impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KathyTX Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Hmmmm...I'm a newbie. I think it will be on May 25th. The clouds in the afternoons lately have been teasing us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giltner68 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 You're seeing the "practice" clouds, they begin this time of year and normally are huge white puffy ones along the S shore and they tease, but the rain won't start until mid June, and even then we'll often see obvious rain along the S shore that never comes here. The typical season sees clouds with lightening about bed time and they come from almost due E and bring us rain about 4am. If they're a bit S they go to Michoacan or a bit N they split and go to Guad or areas N, and that's not all bad, that's in our runoff plain so there's a chance we might get some of it. The rains that normally come from the E seem to build and the further W the more you get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
