Started off as being one little blip on radar. The only rain cloud in the whole dang State but heading right for me! Pretty soon there's 3 blips. Half hour later there's a whole line of showers developing over me. An hour later and it's raining so hard I can hardly see to drive home. The fields were just graying off from the last rain.

We are at something like 18 inches in 16 days. Have about 160 acres out of 1200 to plant. Half of that will be corn, other half Milo. Roads are so soft we are having to dump bulls on rock roads and trail them into the pastures with 4 wheelers. My horses are pretty useless with all the slick mud. Need about 2 weeks to get the planting in, then another 2 weeks to get the wheat cut.
 
It's rained so much here in North Texas the earth worms have left the ground and a week ago a crawdad was trying to get in the house.
 
I planted a garden last year. It rained so much it drowned the plants. Planted one this year same results. I am not planting one next year. Well gotta go empty the gauge.
 
I went out on the covered patio during last night's storm and all the toads were already there.
 
I just have to say that is a very cool picture.

We had a lot of rain here in MI, but now it hasn't rained in almost a week, and things are really starting to dry out and get dusty. Supposed to have stormed for the last 3 days and nothing has happened.
 
We haven't had a good rain in about 2 weeks. Her horses grazing pastures down. Farmers have planted ground. Was supposed to rain this weekend but now weatherguessers are saying no rain till next week.
 
Finished planting yesterday here in NW Indiana. Just had six tenths of rain this afternoon. Perfect timing.
 
Never complain about rain, it beats the hell out of drought.
Alberta wild fires are burning down the province,..hundreds of thousands of acres are already burned down including aprox 3000 houses in oilsands City Fort McMurrey. Thank the Lord for the 4" rain we got last week,. the first moisture since snow melt.
