    35 - 40 mm at Weyburn. Much needed only 12 - 18mm from the middle of April. To late to prevent irreversible yield loss on some crops but certainly was timely to prevent a complete disaster. Rain event easily worth a couple hundred million to SE Sask economy.

      1.6 inches. Truly believe that a single inch of rain mid August to fill the soybeans is all this area will need for 2017.

        We have had more moisture out of a heavy dew. Crops around here are green but not growing much above ground. Putting roots down and preparing to hunker down. Could pay dividends later if we ever do get some rain.

            1.7 inches Richardson Kronau and north to Davin a few small puddles but way better than dry. 1.9 inches Indian Head area. So very needed, but regret that some others still waiting. Big Zee, I feel your frustration but this week is not done and there is moisture around to spawn showers. Just one good shot and the crops will show their gratitude. Good luck all Agrivillers.

                From the sound of the downpour outside right now we should be at 22" since May 1 by the time I wake up

                      Last Friday's 3" downpour and the other shots we've had on top of saturated ground has been interesting. Not to mention hail too. Can't get cows into bush pastures as roads are washed out. I'd bet were over 150mm. It's never wet like this here usually the other way. I'm not bitching cause dry is worse for me.
