Ya 4 inches last week.1 inch yesterday. Up to 3 this afternoon. The creek is flowing. The river is above spring levels.Worse than 2010 and anything i can remember over 35 years. In 1983 we got 6 inches overnight in mid July but we were pretty dry.

Good Grief. The piling on continues. Yorkton was already 200% of average for the growing season.

This is retarded. I have sand that is drowning out. Beach sand. 50-75mm. No need to launch at the lake. Just boat down from the farm.

Me tinks no storms or rain coming because the Bethune Radar station is still up.

[carebear300]

Yep that radar station is good for something after all!!!!!!!!!

[ColevilleH2S]

The new set of North Korean Vacuum tubes Environment Canada installed in the Bethune radar station seem to be holding up quite well.

Anyone on here from Moosamin ?

[SASKFARMER3]

This is insane! God I hate rain!

[farmaholic]

Saskfarmer3. Has it gotten to the point where you even hate the sound of it on the roof? I am on record as hating the sound of wind because it has done more damage than good to me in my farming career. (Not saying there is never a need for it, like drying a swath out or hoping for some now to help dry the land a bit, but.....)

Stay sane

I guess what bugs me is Mother Nature can equally give or take(No control). But when she takes and then we get shafted again buy tough grading and
price stealing, well.....

As hard as it is to say(and I need to heed my own advice). Don't let it or the bastards grind you down
