Bummer. These storms have been happening a couple times a week. We're watching one hear our way right now with a lot of color in it. They all seem to head up to the Arkansas/Missouri area and get even stronger!!

We've been getting daily rains for a couple of weeks here in Southern MO. Ducks swimming in the hay fields and pastures.
Unfortunately no. Long term forecast hasn't improved for rain. 40% wed but nothing significant expected.

Crazy how much rain we're getting that goes to Southern Missouri, but not up your ways. That has to be driving you crazy!!!! We're expecting 2 inches from the storms that are heading here this afternoon.
Yeah I'd like to at least get a foot or two covering the bottom to give me an idea of how it's going to hold. On the plus side the deer are loving the new splash pool. Watched several young deer having a good time splashing and jumping around in it a few days ago.

Don't feel bad, it's the same way here. We have literally missed ALL rain this spring and it's wet around us.
Todays update in pictures. Chance of storms tonight and tomorrow. Radar shows this first one splitting just as it gets to us and going north and south of us. Hope it holds together. We need it. Our grass is already stressing and starting to brown.

Hope y'all get some rain soon too. It is hit or miss.

I really hope it goes up your way, we need a bit of a break. Last few days it's been less than an inch a day but there is so much mud and standing water I keep having to put off stuff.
Did find a window to clean out winter feeders and out of self preservation moved a bunch of hay/manure from around the feeders after driving the tractor over the axles deep into the muck to get to the feeders. Note all this is up on my ridge field 300' above the creek and it still has standing/running water all over.
Raining now, hope some goes up your way.

Now that I know where you are on the radar map, it's been amazing to see how all those storms keep missing you. It might be time to start washing all your cars!!!!

Hope you got some of the storms last night, we got an easy 3" overnight. Ducks swimming in the hay field again.

That’s enough to start monitoring it for a leak.
