Who’s having one?

We experienced some nice rainfall that has produced some healthy crops but we are still on the short end.

Since we purchased this property there has always been water in this ditch at least a foot deep.

There has always been water standing in this spot. A foot or better the width indicated with the arrows.

It’s been dry all summer. Just enough to keep mowing grass. River’s here down a couple feet from normal.

Not here in North central Pa. We had rain almost every week and we had to cut grass every 4 or5 day or it would get to tall. Everything was green all summer.......jk

It’s a dry hot sucker here in western Kansas. Buffalo grass is so dry it sounds like you’re walking on eggshells! Cows are eating bales as fast as you can bring them. We finally have a chance of rain later in the week.

We had a fairly normal summer of gully washers with a couple dry spells.

Very dry here. Potholes are dried up. Last weekend was the quietest duck opener in years.

We had a seasonal creek or so I thought when we bought our 23 acres there was water in it for the first couple years. Now it is only a hard rain overflow to the swamp.

We've been here since 1998 and this year we had the worst drought. Three months of it....but now it's been raining and green again.

I have a 40 acre pond in my backyard that has receded to about a 20 acre pond. I was able to go a month without cutting my grass.
