We were very excited about the moisture we received last week. I know that some places got lots and had flooding to contend with, but our 1 1/2 inches Friday night came real nice. We just had a rain storm go through here about thirty minutes ago. Kyle reported that we had 1 1/2 inches again. Luckily, we missed the large hail that Kit Carson and Granada got. There were probably others but those were my only sources this evening. Hate the bad storms, but our country was in bad need of moisture. Maybe this will break the dry cycle.
Revelation 3:20 “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in.” Warner Sallman painted a lovely picture of Jesus knocking at a door. There was no door handle. It has been said that this is an example that Jesus doesn’t push his way into your heart. One needs to open the door of his or her own heart to Him. One has a choice.
Dear EarthTalk:With all the crazy heat waves around the world this summer, how could anyone still claim that climate change isn’t anything to worry about? -- Randy Smith, Providence, RI
Kiowa County Sheriff Casey Sheridan announced Monday that the county-wide fire ban has been lifted.
Recent rains in the area, including a storm Friday that knocked out power to parts of the county for nearly 26 hours, have improved conditions. Precipitation amounts in many locations ranged from one-half to one and one-half inches over the weekend.
The ban may be re-introduced later in the year if vegetation dries and fire risk increases.
