It's been 3 or 4 weeks since we've had any real decent rainfall. Lawn is brown, been watering the garden and new apple trees.

Last night we got 1.9 inches of rain in a few hours. And lightning, constant. Quite a show.

We did lose power, but it came back in a few hours. No damage in our yard and nothing around us that was terribly obvious.

Thought I saw y’all had a big storm supposed to drop some moisture. Hope it happens.

We’re supposed to get 1-3” between tonight and Monday morning. Hope that happens too. Planting dove fields today!!

Good for you Kyle. We got .25 inches. I was up north for 3 days fishing and they received nothing. Really hit or miss. We have not had quite 1 inch in about 5 weeks. Choosing which parts of the garden to water and letting the lawn go brown. It will come back but the veggies won't.
