You likely have other maps but I like looking at the AAFC weather maps. You will have to play around with the search.

No rain for 75 days then one f'ing inch over night hard fast rain and flooded fields just like 2010! Must be impossible to rain gently and slowly anymore!

Soil still saturated. Two more inches forecast, seeded acres disappearing under water. Will be spraying in water leaving more ruts like 2010.

So much for optimism...

40mm so far west of Lake Diefenbaker and still coming down. All our nicely seeded low spots and water runs are full again...

[furrowtickler]

We are at about 15 mm, for us a good thing.

I am on the internet looking for a kit to start my
ark.

food4u, same here. Should have listened to the wife, she said don't bother seeding low spots, it might rain and fill them again! Doh!
Best yielding areas might drown again, grow huge weeds later.
More erosion, more salinity.

We live in the semi-arid prairies right?

4 inches....oh man.....we thought the runoff was high this spring. Its a mess. Water running over roads that never did this spring.

[furrowtickler]
