Dry Bubble in East half of Sk

Block still in place and holding. WTF is causing this?

Isn't that block odd? It is the Regina Block for sure. All year, same pattern, so frustrating when you have cracks 4-5 inches wide.

Not to mention trees that we've tended for decades showing such stress that they may not make it. We've been dragging hoses. Watering all green life that we can gat at almost daily, all summer. Believe me, 2017 has been a stinker.

I just find it so funny like the hand of God is saying no water for you! All summer same stuff it will break but when. Snow for Alberta tomorrow wow

Wikipedia has an interesting report on cloud seeding, says it has never been statistically proven to work, even after reported success in individual trials.
As to reserve moisture, value likely varies farm to farm depending on soil type, topography and more.
After ten wet years, own farm would prefer to see it stay a little on the dry side.

Maybe someone on here begging for drought for 10 or 15 years ??

We have been in that bubble the last few days calling for 2+" of moisture. GFS, GDPS, NAM, and now RDPS models have us right on the fringe where it starts to taper out quickly, but still in the 2" area... It's been tantalizingly close all day, but all its mustered so far is a couple spits on the north window. I've done most everything i can to encourage it, by working down and spraying out sloughs full of cattails thinking they'll be seedable next year. Perhaps i need to roll back the tarps on the trucks, pull the covers off the piles, and open up all the bin tops?

Well done FJ , youve fed a lot of unappreciative people a lot of grub !!
We are on the last quarter today except for 450 ac red clover and alfalfa . What a beautiful fall and a great crop ! Sure helps with the beating we took last year . Strange , this was one of the latest springs and the worst seeding job ever and yet it transpired into one of the best crops ever . Nice when it finally comes together

I wanted my 4 inches this fall then shit all till spring this would of helped that total but it is going to miss. Harvest continues.
These suckers went deep for water

Your right every single neighbour started going to church and we all prayed for the rain to end. Finally it did “Unanswered Prayers!”
Took 15 years.
