Thiudgt I has found a tractor I'd been looking for, but it turned out just the hood was from the tractor, and the rest was a 3012V with no variable, missing covers, mismatched rims/tires. no hydrolift or lights, etc. Anyways, I couldn't get excited aout it when I already have a very complete original that was languishing with flat tires and a broken hydrolift belt. I know the lift works good cause I was using it when it broke. Well slimed one tire, replaced another, battery was still up, drained the gas, checked fluids and gave the old gorl a bath.
I'd forgotten how complete it is. All there and original except the muffler, seat cover, and hood bolts. And has all the oroiginal goodies, too.
It started pouring at the end so couldn't quite finnish. Oh well
I see some real potential here!!!

Been so long I had to look it up. It seems what I've been getting for over 5 weeks is called "virga":
Rain is a type of precipitation, a product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapour that is deposited on the earth's surface. It forms when separate drops of water fall to the Earth's surface from clouds. Not all rain reaches the surface; some evaporates while falling through dry air. When none of it reaches the ground, it is called virga, a phenomenon often seen in hot, dry desert regions.

No you have me looking up stuff. Virga is a new word but I'm all to familiar with "Teaser Rain"
In meteorology, virga is an observable streak or shaft of precipitation that falls from a cloud but evaporates before reaching the ground.[1] At high altitudes the precipitation falls mainly as ice crystals before melting and finally evaporating; this is usually due to compressional heating, because the air pressure increases closer to the ground. It is very common in the desert and in temperate climates. In North America, it is commonly seen in the Western United States and the Canadian Prairies.
