elevator Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Been here eight years and never seen that happen in rainy season. I know it's rained in other spots but this is unusual imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggiemae Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 I have lived here for almost 13 years. Every rainy season we have a lull in August, which is about half-way through the season. This lull lasts about two weeks, during which time there may be a sprinkle/shower or two. Newbies tend to panic, fearing the rainy season has ended. Never fear! The rains will return. Meanwhile, I have begun manually using my sprinkler system and watering my potted plants. In addition, rain in "other spots" is typical because the north shore appears to be composed of many, many micro climates. I live just west of Ajijic. My best friend lives in Riviera Alta where they often have rain while we don't....and vice versa. Meanwhile, I hope you are enjoying the cool nights and the gorgeous flowers and the mountains that look as tho' they are covered in green velvet. Such wondrous beauty! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Lived here for almost 15 years. A period in August with no rain is not uncommon in my recollection. Both June and July were wetter than average. Much cloudier than I recall as usual, however. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elevator Posted August 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Not a newbie. As I said eight years here fulltime. But, I've never had six consecutive dry days and nights during rainy season. I'm certainly not panicking...just observing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elevator Posted August 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 I've had the hose out a couple of times in the past as I have some outdoor plants in pots that need water every 4-5 days. But, like I said I don't remember a week without rain. My buddy out near Vista del Lago says they have not had any either, except a very light sprinkle.
