Must be in the north central regions of Missouri? Hear in Lynn county there was report of 9 inch rain totals. That is just extreme. Watching the radar loop, that whole area was under red for about 8 hours it seemed.

thats where were at. Linn county. getting to work i had to stop at nearly every ditch crossing to clean debris off the road. luckily, the area i'm in is pretty hilly, most all of the water had receeded by the time i got off to work. the low-lying areas though are inundated.

I just put out the last of my cow hay about a week ago. I put out the last of my horse rolls to the cows last weekend.

Yes, we maybe got a half inch to an inch last Wednesday, but haven't seen any more. I sure do need it. I got good grass right now, but that's subject to change. Or dry wind was back again today, too. It's gonna start burning around here pretty soon. I need to check and see if there is a burn ban yet. If there is, first bottle rocket my neighbor shoots off toward my place, I am calling the deputies. He just scares me to death with his dam fireworks.

got another two-inches early this morning. highway 36 was closed east & west bound lanes east of chillicothe, mo. the eastbound lane stayed high and dry in the 1993 & 1995 floods. levee protected bottomlands in our area have pretty much all been flooded out. with the wet spring we've had, a lot of the corn farmers who fertilized last fall - did it over again this spring - just in time to be flooded out.

We are finally getting some wide spread rain in decent amounts. Now if it will just continue to be more normal occurrences we might get some hay in this year. Usually what happens is we get some then it don't rain again for a month or so. Last couple years anyway.

Yep, know the routine all to well. 1/2" in 42 days. Has been unusual not to get some rain during a given month so with 4 days left in June, maybe we are getting close.

you should get some rain on july 4th.it always rains some then.

 

[DavisBeefmasters]

Is rain that stuff that falls from the sky and is wet?

If so, haven't seen any measurable rain since March! Please share any/all that y'all can spare...

I was thinking about that too. Seem to like raining on the outside celebrations.

We got an inch of rain last night. From all the noise it made, you'd have thought we were getting flooded. Lots of sound and fury. I will take that inch, though. Beats nothing.
