Storms?

Anybody get pounded with rain last night?? Davidson looked bad on Radar. We had 1.2 inches.

Haven't bought a pair of rubber boots since getting out of the cattle business! Bought a pair to see if it would make it rain. Got a downpour of 15/100th inch last night. Going to town to exchange the boots for hip waders!!! Any waterfowl show up at Davidson this morning?

A good rain last night.... 1.4 to 1.5 inches....
between Carlyle and Arcola.... also about 1.4 inches
at Kenosee Lake.

I thought I had forgotten how to prime the rain
gauges...

Hope it was a good drink for the grasshoppers as
well.

I commiserate with you folks that need water and
missed out last night... a far too familiar feeling at
our farm.... Bill

We got 95/100th last evening but the neighbor 3.5 miles south got over 4"s and made a real mess.

S F A coldnt buy a good soaker pst today at farm rain all around and poured at lake last night but hey 32 on weekend

Since when did we start talking in 100ths.
I got 150 100th, give or take 15. peas are flowering nicely. Later canola awsome. Wheat unbelievable.

[cottonpicken]

Late canola awesome?

[food4u]

When you live in an area where every drop counts..you measure evrything.

[Hopperbin]

Looks awesome not counting date. Then again had 10 bushel canola once. So nice to immagine bushels in the bin anyway.

[Hopperbin]

You said it Hopper. Crops are behind here somewhat, maybe 3-4 days. We always need until end of August frost free up here. If I'm cutting Canola by middle of August, usually isn't much of a crop to cut anyway.

Barley is fully headed, Wheat 30% headed fully, other 70% out of boot, Canola most 1/4's full bloom, Oats just starting to come out of boot, Peas flowering, Flax getting odd flower.

We had about 1/2 inch, but 15 miles south east Denholm had over 5 in. in less than 2 hrs. Made a real mess and closed hwy 16 for a while. Water still running full bore this afternoon. We were 2 weeks behind but with the wet cool weather we are closer to 3 weeks behind now. 80% of the peas/wht, 20% canola looks good, everything else looks crappy.

I want you 150/100th to 600/100th farmers to stop killing all the spiders!!! I'll pay the freight on a live bushel bag of them. (lol) It's coming up on two weeks of boll forming and flax bloom here, and I'm believing it's still at least a week behind normal. Our flax beat an August 18 frost a few years back. Not a chance this year.
