          The shower lottery going on around here. Just over 1/4 inch here this afternoon but I heard rain gauges in Regina say 1/2 inch. Need another shot like that b/c Regina Block has been locking systems out lately and lawns like rain. 👍

            Rains every couple of days this year, everything washed out or flooded out.
            Last year, no rain and this was the week of plus 40C, death.

              No end here, rain on:
              June 8,9,11,12,13,14,15,20,24,28,29 July 2,3,4, and forecast for tomorrow.

              Peas getting root rot and are fading fast, soon as it turns hot, there'll be large empty areas in many fields. Try getting the spraying done, between wind, showers and mud ! Canola and wheat sitting in water, to copy a phrase,,, mud is a dud!

                Have had 9” here already, and an inch forecast for tomorrow. Will be almost double our normal yearly total if we get that inch tomorrow. Rains forecast for all week and then it looks like it starts drying out after that. We will be smarter in a week or two!

                  Judging by the sound on the roof right now, I'm going to assume the rains haven't ceased here yet.

                  I just checked my closest station, and we are up to 250 mm of rain in the last 29 days. That is over half of our average annual precipitation in less than a month. With another inch forecast tonight. And showers most of the coming week. With well below average temperatures, so evaporation is nil.

                  I would have been more than happy if it shut off after the first inch.

                  It isn't as catastrophic as it would be on a normal year. We started out with dry sloughs and potholes, dry subsoil and lower water table. So the first few inches actually didn't do much damage. But once everything was saturated, every additional shower is doing big damage.

                  Spraying has been a challenge, and messy.

                    Guy from Blaine lake made wrong turn looking for local auction. Said man that canola is patchy, yes that's mine.
                    60 % chance every day here means the same as it did in May, no rain.
                    Just over 2 inches this year total
                    Yet 3 miles north , i have some there too. beautiful crops. An inch ahead.
                    Canola 3 times bigger. Like night and day difference seeded a day later.
