What we have been going through isn't normal, same as what the midwest has is not normal. However, the weather system is starting to change to hit and miss showers, our little popup storms. Abou the only thing to help us make up some of the deficit is a good soaking tropical storm. Kinda sad though, all the corn is tassling, and it has been grown with irrigation. And you know how much water corn will drink. Dryland has been a wash on the poorer dirt, the sandy fields and the clay hills both lack any substantial stand. We are behind on the hay we need too. We're lucky, we have all we need and some to sell. Most aren't so lucky. If we got normal to excess rain the rest of the year, we might see some crops saved. Otherwise I think this county could lose a couple more farmers.
