Runoff resumes!

So far this rain event has been quite uneventful!!! wiseguy, it could be a lot worse here. I'm hoping that there is enough to get the crop started and that those hot dry ****ing winds stay away. Those just add insult to injury. Amazing how things can go from (barely) adequate to too dry after a week of high winds and low humidity combined. Too bad we couldn't swap weather conditions sometimes.

Has as much fallen in SW Manitoba as they were "forecasting"?

FJ - your not the only place on earth with extrem conditions with a 20 mile area - come for a beer ..

Seems like every creek/river, lake, rise of land, bush acres makes a change in the weather patterns UP in the sky. Hard to grasp. I know that ice block in HB is major influence to NE corner.

fjlip, around here (Gregor, to Muenster, along #5) we are actually seeing less water than usual. Way less.


Culverts that held back flow most years never even ran full this year...


Good thing too, our soil is soaked.

Half an inch at my place. Calling for another inch of precipitation tomorrow - in the form of snow. I'll take it gladly.

We were on the north edge about 2 hrs of flurries then it quit fairly windy now we didn't need any more, heard on the radio that the roads north and west of Dauphin were slick. More people there to enjoy it.
