Rain. Always before I have a trip planned. As you can see from the graph below, we got hammered last night with thunderstorms and rain, jumping all of the rivers up substantially, while also blowing out the once-clear Beaverkill and East Branch. All are dropping quickly, and will likely clear by the weekend (the West Branch stayed about as turbid as it has been, and will likley remain so), but today looks like a tough one out there.
