    It's been a while since areas in all 4 corners of the prairies have been hit with damaging storms in the same week.

    If one were to go from PA south to the border and guess that the whole area averaged 1.35 inches of rain it boggles the mind.
    Lake Diefenbaker holds about that amount, 2.255 cubic miles.

              We got 1.2" but might get more as the night goes on. This was a massive system that affected alot of people.

                  Close to 4 inches since yesterday and still raining. Had 3 inches a few days before that, and the creeks were running before yesterday. Yesterday was the nail in the coffin. Canola looks terrible. Just terrible.

                    2.4 inches here but varies quite a bit within a short distance. We were glad to get some significant rain as it was just showers until now. Hopefully the weather clears and those with way too much water can have a chance to salvage what is left.
