We are in the same band. The hired man said aren't you worried seeding will be late?

Uhm no. I'll take the rain. It's been dry way too long. Would like to use all the bins.

I've had two bins tied up with building materials for 3 years now... they're the worst bins, but good God I'd like to actually store grain in them someday!

Another inch , but after two years of minimal rain, it will take more than this to rebuild reserves.

Yes no doubt , same situation here.

Looks messy for another week

20 year cycle maybe?
have not had a rain here before seeding since 2004 , the year after the last drought cycle……

20 years since a nasty August frost as well. Could be time for that again as well.

Even the continuing mist added up to more than 1/4 inch yesterday.

More moisture 1/4 inch but satellite shows a huge system pumping up from US.
