Here's the Monday evening sky outside of my home just before a huge rainstorm dumped buckets of rain.  Within minutes of taking this picture, we experienced a rainstorm like I haven't seen here in many  years.  There was serious lightning, thunder and rain for about 20 minutes, leaving raging rivers, mudslides up the Entiat, and the nuisance of some plugged storm drains around the valley.   

After a good gully-washer like that is a good time to check property (for leaks, unstable soil, etc).  It rained so hard, I got to wondering if the building lot some clients are interested in had any serious erosion.   I drove to the Peach Haven II subdivision in East Wenatchee and was pleasantly surprised that everything was still intact.  The road wasn't even muddy, which gives me confidence that the lots are very stable. 

After a rainstorm is a good time to shop for a home or land.  It's pretty hard to hide potential issues associated with unusual amounts of rainfall.
