Rain Rain Come Back Today - Page 5 - Tucson, Arizona

I drove through a few washes on the way over to my dad's house yesterday so I also have a nice clean undercarriage.

My uncle's rain gauge measured 1.33 inches yesterday.

According to the forest service web site, everything is still closed. Hopefully we'll get enough rain this week to open everything back up.

I am crossing all fingers hoping that everything will open back up soon.

from north east right now looking south, that storm front getting ready to run over the south and central parts of tucson is one of the tallest and thickest storms i've seen in a few years. today could be good for you guys in those areas.

prepare to swim!

Oh yay I will get to play in the wash some more.

Anyway. Maybe I will go topless this time through the wash. Even though I got soaked anyway. water come up through my shift lever boot, hehe. Squishy sneakers are always fun.

skivviss · 07-05-2011, 03:36 PM

heh, i was proud that i fixed my soft top leak. not a drop got in until i opened the door. and then the trademark jk waterfall occurred.

the fix was putting the softtop up correctly...

**ChrisNukemYJ** · 07-05-2011, 03:39 PM

lol. my soft top problem is the upper soft door frames are all bent up so I have gaps at the
top of the doors. I just need to get a new soft top mine is 12 years old.

yesterday, it appeared the 'closed' gates were gone from the bottom of redington road. however, the signs were so 'sloppily' moved i'm not sure it was officially opened or just people moved them to go play in the storms.

i also ran into a guy that claims he was out at chiva the weekend before wheeling. ugh, closed is closed.

Did you chastise him for risking keeping it closed for even longer? Stupid is as stupid does I guess.

Should have kicked him.
