    After the hail and rain on some of it a couple of days ago. The rest, most in need of it, finally got a shot.
    It took a beating, but there should a crop there now.
    Will be interesting. Have early seeded peas beside
    Very late seeded. On the driest stuff . Guessing the late will do better.
    Pouring rain as I type now

      East of Red Deer. .55 inches in last 24 hrs. That puts rain total at my house at about 4.2 inches since snow melt. If you go 4 miles west 1 inch less for the year. I was talking to a trucker yesterday who lived a bit North and west of Meeting Creek, as of yesterday morning they were still under 1 inch of rain since snow melt. Rain is certainly like a lottery this year.

      One a different note, finished putting up the bit of hay I do. First field 6 miles west of me yielded one third of a bale per acre, second field 1/2 mile west yielded 1 1/3 bales per acre. Rough year for hay!

        1.8 inches here with neighbours reporting up to 2.5. We dont get many rains like this usually especially in July. Should be good for a while now.

          9/10ths, didn't want any, didn't need any. Would just like to see the crop dry out for once, so much humidity every morning, not good in the fight against leaf diseases. Over 12" since Apr 1st, most of it coming after planting..

            1.5 to 2 in so far in the past 12 hrs , can breathe a little easier now . Should fill canola , peas and cereals . Soybeans and Blackbeans will need one more shot at end of July . Was desperately needed again in this area

              1/2 inch on the whole farm over three hours on and off. No hail just wind and few trees broke.

                  Lots of BIG Predictions from Weather Network But all we got was 1/4 INCH !!

                  That makes about 2.25 since snow melt

                    Almost enough to measure here. And I see the rain in the forecast has all disappeared too.
