We need it here in western Pa. The creeks are so low they’re only flowing three days a week.

I've never seen so much thunder and lightning in October.
Boy did she ever pour.

Too much at once, that's for sure.

Too much for sure, but an old farmer told me that too wet is always better than too dry!
My Dad lived through the drought during the Great Depression. It was bad.

Wow! I don’t have a guage but I’d guess we got about 2 inches of rain. Rained all day on top the snow and it’s nearly gone now. Ran the hounds tonight and still had decent tracking snow here and there.

Wow, we had a little over 4" in 24 hrs. as of yesterday evening, set a record, and I thought that was bad! I feel sorry for the guys who set early for canines around here.

Yep, lots of rain, creeks to the top of the banks, just got back from checking beaver dams, quite a few blown open, and water trapping opens tomorrow. Will have to wait several days now.
