Well here we are in the time of year we all love since for once we see clouds, maybe hear thunder and at least have something different than sunshine. I know for you living where it snows that sounds crazy but I thought I'd just show you what happens around here when we get a huge dust storm. They've been coming pretty often, some nights we get just some wind, some times dirt blowing and then 10 drops of rain, this week we got a good one, huge dust storm, the kind you can hardly see thru and then gushing rain for quite a long time. I had over an inch in a bucket out in the yard so I know none of it was run off. Here is what it does to the pool.....the cleaner was trying! I started the massive clean up in the yard while it was still sprinkling and thundering once the heavy rain quit. Lots of branches down, everything on the patio was blown to the west fence, big big mess! I saved the pool and patio until the next morning since it was dark. More hours spent trying to get the pool cleaned up, it had tried over night but it wasn't so good. After a total brushing and running 6 more hours it looks good again. After running again last night I can still tell it needs another brushing today but that will have to wait until after work. Amazing how much dirt there is, every surface outside had that dirt on it. One more patio to clean off yet...probably in time for another one tonight! The one that came thru last night just made it windy, we didn't get the dirt, that stayed over in Phx.!
