The one south east of us could be seen advancing toward us but hit the high pressure ridge and stalled out...so we got sfa.

Today, tonight and tomorrow we have a 30% chance of showers and 70% probability of disappointment.

Grassy, how much liquid gold did you get yesterday(Friday).

Down for 1/100 of an inch today.
Beggars ought not to be choosers

If fact the radar says it's raining right now. Sidewalk says otherwise

A good 6/10ths farma. Might finally germinate some grass seed we put in a month ago. Sounds like lots in the south got either side of a half inch but quickly petered out as you go north.

Holy crap. Lloydminster got a good inchthen 2” of hail. We got a good half but sounds north and south of us got nothing. God fertile turd looks to be swimming. This’ll hold us over for a while. Hope winds stay away now and we’ll be okay.

Not great for emerging canola

I hate to say this but it looks to me like a clear pitch is opening above us and we will get SFA

1.65 so far here, which is already half of what we had all of last year.

Not sure if that was a typo but God fertile turd has to be one of the best expletives I've heard for a while.

Furrow’s pics just make me nervous. I want nothing to do with that kind of crap. Rain makes pain!

Saturday afternoon about 4:45 pm.

About a quarter inch, hard and fast, at Ghetto Headquarters. The Ghetto is concentrated into a tight block and by the looks of the radar most of it would have got some.

I'm so happy, I liked my own post on purpose!

Not enough to lay the dust here. The neighborhood is out spraying and cant see the sprayer for dust. Rain last night was about an hour north and today about an hour south of us. Frustrating.

She's awful early in the season to be rain shower lottery weather...

On the upside, it "smelled nice" here for a few hours early this morning. Massive dump of about 4 or 5 inches... between rain drops on the patio! My garden of eden is patiently awaiting something of substance.
