.270 Report post Posted January 24, 2010 all in all, a nice little storm. didn't too much damage. recharged some groundwater, put water in a lotta tanks, will green up the desert and put down a fair amount of snowpack. but a lot of parts of the state didn't get much. when the wind blew hard here thursday we got a dust storm, because it didn't rain much to the south of us. weird, by then we'd had 3 1/2 inches of rain and had a dust storm. go figger. rained a lot in some areas, but not much in others. got a fair amount of snow, we'll take it. it's a good start. now if we can get a little more rain every few weeks maybe we can have us a good quail hatch for a change. yep, a nice little storm.

GameHauler Report post Posted January 24, 2010 A few quick pictures. I had to run to town and get my camera out of my other truck and with it being cold both batteries were dead so a quick charge to one so I could get some pictures before any more melted. Total of 16" measured on the quad box Yesterday. Payson did not get nearly as much as I did at home. Last time I talked to me Dad Yesterday he had 3" in town Got to fire up the chain saw after it dries out a bit and cut up all the broken limbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
