ft, i think i know where your share of rain has been going, southern Iowa and northern Missouri had a HUGE rain last night, 3 county's in each state had between 8" to 12" of rain !!! yes, you read right, 6 full county's in the heart of the corn belt had that much rain, just last night June 24th. plus there was a large area that had 4" to 8" tonight, the eastern half of Iowa is getting nailed, and the storms are moving south into that same area!

furrow,

If you still own the gauge the first week in August, I'll swap you a gallon pail full of fresh saskatoons and send them to you!

You might get a better offer, though.

Take it and put it in a drawer in the shop where you can't find it, that's when mine seems to be the most needed.

p.s stretching the commodity marketing topic here a little bit isn't it....( though no one seems to care anymore about staying with those parameters )

Sorry rain gauge isn't big enough. Fought through mud all spring and now can't spray because too wet. Some crops hailed badly, some blown away. Expecting crops will mature around Christmas. Wish I could borrow gauge and send back half full.Too much or too little are both a problem.

Rained hard at Whitewood, Saskatchewan, tonight, 1.5 inches, some hail, not big, but pea size.

100ml rain between Langenburg and Spyhill tonight.

None north of Kenosse Lake.
