They are calling for rain here starting late evening. I ran a couple of 8" drains through the top of the dam. They are only at about 4-5 feet but hoping we get enough rain to gauge the amount of runoff through this area. No significant rain so far this year. Enough rain to fill what I've done so far would be even better. At least If it holds or disappears after a couple of days I'll be able to decide to continue or not.

Put out a rain gage and keep track of it. once the ground is saturated, it can fill up fairly quick with a decent watershed.

Been following since the thread started, but figured subscribing is much easier than constantly scrolling all the posts to find this one haha. Very cool so far!

Yep. I think there's a way to subscribe without making a post but I don't know how to do it. So I make a comment or simply post "following" to get on the list.

Yep. In the beginning it might seem dismal at holding water. It'll get everything soaked and settled, then it'll do better.

Most of the rain last night and today missed us. Looks like next decent chance is Thursday.

We've been getting rain off and on since mid morning. Temp has dropped a LOT. It's 40F now with a blustery NW wind. We'll freeze tonight. Gonna be hard on my Pear tree since it's almost fully bloomed.....

Cold here as well. 31 right now as of 8pm. Was a nice 58 this morning. We had some very light rain. Most heavy rain split north and south.
