Subject: RE: BS: The weather
In Albuquerque, its low-90s during the day, 50s at night. The sun is very hot, since we are at 6000 feet. The last time I saw rain was last month, but I was in Seattle at the time. We are in our second year of drought...like Deda, we depend on snow-pack for water supply and to replenish our acquifer, and there really hasn't been much snow for a while. A decision was made last week to close off some of the agricultural irrigation system because the Rio Grande had totally dried up south of here, and some endangered Silver Minnows were becoming more endangered by the minute.
