[food4u]

What a beautiful sound... first rain since May 5th...hope it is not just a teaser...

It must be about time for the Bethune Radar Station to go down.

That wasn't thunder hopper met a new Asian girl.

[food4u]

don't know how much as someone watered the flower beds and did not empty the rain gauge...

Missed us east of Regina, "the city that rhymes with fun"(can you image that was their slogan for a while). Maybe next time. We were on the western edge of it, probably didn't have to go too far east southeast to be in it.

Might be rain coming??..Have to dump out the dust from the rain gauge..

[freewheat]

I washed all the vehicles. Tractors, cart, watered the new seeded lawn. I feel it coming, a good inch. lol

.02 to 1.1 from one end to the southern end of farm hm it can rain!

[freewheat]

Starting. Need to pay for my seeding sins.

Went out to the kids playhouse. Tin roof. Listening to the rain on it. This way I can know how long it lasts.

After the decade of wet, I never thought I would actually like this sound. But this once, I sure do.

Hope you who need rain, get it.

western sask.
supposedly had a 70% chance today in the rain lotto.
didn't even come close to here ,
maybe somewhere got a splash.
you wound think 2-3 weeks of 20% and a
few 60-s and 70s , that you could get something,
. guess not.
until now it has pretty well been business as usual as far as spending on inputs.
now with tens and twentys POP s
for the next week.
just fill out the crop insurance

Got, 2/10ths here..

Lots of clouds but very hard to get any humidity, 74% AFTER the 2/10", wow. Small drops almost a mist.
Thunder and wind, guess that is a storm. Yes it can rain but after a month of no humidity, will take a few weeks to get going again. Hit and miss will not make a good crop for all. Hope for next week.

East, south east Alberta. Very little here, Last snowfall was April 2nd. First rain, May 28th, 2 tenths on about 30% of the farm, nothing on the other 70%. Second rain June 4th, 3 tenths on the same 30% that got some last week, 2 tenths on the other 70%. Hoping we get a third rain soon.

Got 6/10ths yesterday, biggest (and nearly only) moisture of the season. By the sounds of it most of the western side of AB has had that or more, certainly south of me, not sure of north. Need way, way more but its a start.
Lot of crops seeded early hardly showing from the road.
