Is it “do or “die” week?

Good chances for more but maybe not enough? Will have to wobble to the west to give Regina an inch by Wednesday morning

Desperate beggars can't be choosers, I'll take what I can get.

Had good reserve moisture from last fall rains, most crops now look good to excellent.
Winter wheat maybe not so good, early snow melt and extended cold after not so good for it.
Spring wheat and barley nearly free of leaf disease so far, wondering about fungicide.
June rainfall now two and three quarter inches, heaviest showers a half inch.
Could be turnaround time and have to worry about too much moisture rather than too little.

"Fortunate rain recipients", don't be afraid to report. It is what it is....

How can someone be pissy if someone else gets a better shot of rain?
Its all luck.
I won't envy you for a good rain if you don't suffer from schadenfreude over some people's lack of rain.

Edit in for Hopalong:

0.67 for the month.
0.12, 0.17 and 0.19 three biggest rains in June.
1.80 for the season starting April 1.

Wind probably hurt us significantly.

According to that I should be in a drought instead of making ruts spraying unseeded ground, maybe true but don't account for losing a month of spring and heat.

Global News reports violent Sunday evening storms south of Winnipeg, an area including Virden and Brandon. Tornadoes and up to 175 mm. of rain can be expected. Now 175 mm. translates into about 7 inches, That’s a lot of rain. Ahoy, yee water lovers! Send it back our way' we could use a couple of those inches (but no thanks to the tornadoes). Isn’t anybody on Agriville from that region?

I just went to Environment Canada and there is a heat warning for Brandon with 32 degrees expected Monday.

Our area is one of the fortunate rain areas Farma. We have had 6 5 inches since May 1st. Others within a few miles more. The crops look awesome. We had some terrible winds this spring as well that caused some damage to crops and shingles as well as a few grain bins. What is really strange for our area is clouds are actually forming here with significant rainfall amounts. That rarely happens. Heres hoping those who are still waiting for a good rain get one soon.

Rain will arrive at 9:56 pm in your yard.

Am I allowed to get worried, mad, disappointed, frustrated if it's late?

[malleefarmer]

Since I started the thread thought i would give an update to my situation. Firstly, I hate to say what I got for rain when others I know who didn’t get any or very little.
We received between 1.4-1.8 inches. Very, very thankful!!
I really hope those didn’t get will get some soon to feel as sense of relief ... just like the crops.
Could be an interesting night ahead as well as tomorrow.
