An exciting 10 minutes

[Isomade]

As y'all know it's drier than powder around here. We had some lightening earlier tonight but no rain. Well, I get a call from my neighbor and he says, "your north east lasture is on fire". So I throw on my boots, jump on the ATV, and head out. When I get there lightening had struck the ground and was blowing across the dried grass toward a brush thicket that covers about four acres. I start stomping and calling for backup at the same time. Bout the time I think I'm not gonna get er out the sky opens up and it starts pouring, I mean coming down in sheets!

The moral of the story is.....ITS POURING RAIN! :banana: :banana: :banana:

Well I am happy for you, it is thundering here right now.
I put the disc on the big tractor a month ago just in case of what your talking about having to try and stop a fire.

It is coming down in sheets here right now thank you Jesus. This looks to be our first real rainfall in month's if it will keep this up.

Good to hear CB, I wound up with .8, which is the most I've had since May. I truly believe the dry cycle is ending and rainy days are on the way.

Looks like close to 2" here. Heard one lady say that just south of me in town they had their lawn covered in hail at one point. None here that I can tell.

As much as it pains me to say this....they weren't as good as advertised! Which I suspected anyway.
