Rain go away

The Fat Guy is bemoaning the "shaggy" grass on his .55 acre, thanks to all the rain north and south central Texas has had in the past four days. He’s also suffering sun-deprivation. Indeed. The grass at the too-dark rancho also is threatening to need mowing soon. Rainwise, after a wet April with 3.71 inches at the airport, we got almost two inches more by midnight yesterday. So we’ve had about 19.5 inches for the year so far–which is more than half of the rain what we normally get in one year. On the other hand, it rained all night at the rancho, and those stats aren’t in yet. You could look it up, here.
