    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

        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.

              Riders, LOL.
              Hopper reminds me of an older saturday night live skit with christopher walken.
              When hopperbin is not farming 14 hours a day, he prefers to occupy his time in the deeeeep south, he can tolerate the heat.... and the hu... mi...di..ty.
              Small shower here, much appreciated.

                  Cottonpicken, that's quite a nice shot. What did you do, destroy a nest of spiders?

                      That was just mean.... Poured for 20 seconds here and quit. That was it. Didn't even register in the rain gauge.
