About 0.25-0.3 inches here, so drought still in full force.

Don't you fellas in Kansas get any Snow fall in the winter to provide some moisture to the water table?

Depends on the year, but normally not that much snow, at least in the west. Our water table in the far west is over a hundred feet down. It's fossil water, so our precipitation doesn't do much for it.

I guess you fellas need to have me come out there and do some trapping! Every time I set steel, it seems to rain or snow or both. I could solve your drought problems with a 2 week trapping trip! smile

What swifty said was true for the guys 30 miles west. We are blessed where i live. Water level is 20'-50' here. I have seen it at 19' in the wet years, and 65' in the dry years. Not bad for 19" of rain a year. We live and die by the water table for our livestock and irrigation, so every drop of rain counts for us. Out west the maximum recharge is 1"/yaer. we can go up or down 10'. we had 0" of snow this year, but I've seen 86" of snow in one winter.

We got .90" in my area of NC Kansas thank the Lord. Looks like there are decent chances of more Sunday-Tuesday. The wheat will have a fighting chance now.
