Rain Amounts

[freewheat]

1.3 overnight. Hope that is about it. Supposed to maybe get windy. So far, been fairly typical breezes.

[fjlip]

2.3" or 58mm so far, never needed a drop to finish a great crop... Plus windy, barley across the road twisted and flat. Haven't ventured out either. In May June the RAIN was a mist maybe a tenth or two in a day, now get that in minutes, huge drops water standing instantly. Again it's STUCK weather spinning on Sk, taking grain...

5.5 inch gravelbourg area, 4 inches a bit north

Up until now I had 5 tenths since may 1st.

My crop was ****ed but knew enough not to ask for rain since it wouldn't help. Actually made it worse. I feel really bad for guys that had a crop and now have to struggle to put it in a bin.

How does crop insurance deal with a year that starts out wet, goes bone dry, and finishes wet again with quality issues.

If I would have waited a week they could have found the too wet acres today.again.

For those that had a crop - good luck with harvest - it looks to be a real muddy harvest.

Rain letting up here now. Still very windy. 5.5 to 6 inches west of Assiniboia. The beast is now heading east. Battin down the hatches. Ahoy

[bigzee]

Highway where u at?? I'm east of Assiniboia no where near those totals here....... yet!!

[highwayman]

Southwest of Gravelbourg. Still raining. Roads underwater here. Culverts running to capacity. With thunderstorms 10 days ago that puts us at 10 inches in July. I guess we're back to normal eh ( gagging on tounge in cheek)

35 miles south of Outlook, just cleared 50mm in the gauge but a bi_ _ _ of northeast wind so all maybe not going in gauge...

[farmaholic]

Winds here right now, 11:45 am are about 10 Km/hr. I think were in the middle of the vortex and everything is swirling around us. I hope they are wrong with the forecast wind speeds...

We don't hear too much from the Moose Jaw area.

The radar at 1:00 Tues is showing rain west of Regina and thankfully it appears the system can't penetrate our shield. We've had quite a nice rain at 2.6 inches up til now. Thanx rain gods, gotta say we'd feel left out if we hadn't had any. Now a drying breeze and we're Happydumguy. Despite the massive storm front, the great white combine has left it standing and I don't think the wind will materialize. Yauk she my!

[T.N.T.]

Million dollar rain in our books,3.8 inchs.

[fjlip]

Must be the millions lost in the 5-6" rain areas, you are welcome.
And if it keeps raining every week, we are F*cked, 2.6" till now, 7.6" since June 1.
One extreme to the other...so was dusty dry that bad????

Great crop ruined or poor crop to start with equals same result a loss, maybe slower crushing of expectations.

Screw that EVIL N wind!!!
