Weather-wise, it has been the coolest and wettest in a long time here in Denver. Last year, we had 24 days in a row of 90 degrees or more. This year in June, we never reached 90. Ever been in a monsoon? It rained every day in June, and almost every day in July. Late afternoon around 4 or 5, we would get a drenching rain. Lots of lightning and hail in places.
We have switched seasons with Seattle and Portland. They are having drought and we have already reached our average yearly rain total. Twice I got caught in the rain. Rain suit? Yeah, right I don't own one. Never needed one. Last night, it snowed above 9,000 feet. I wore my winter leathers yesterday up Lookout and my face mask fogged up. Ever ride behind a storm? Still get wet from the splashback, and you have to look out for flooded streets and corners. But it's nice to see the lightning moving ahead of you, instead of coming toward you in your mirrors. |
