We have had in the 2 + inch range. It rained steady to hard last night. Fields a mess to try to get in & out of. Guess I am glad to not be hauling water, but I can barely get in to get to the one barn to take care of the nurse cows & calves. Feast or famine. At least it has stopped for now. Radar shows us getting a break til tomorrow morning. Looks to be staying a bit south of us. Sure am not wishing this on anyone else. Have flood warnings and watches and Nelson county is supposed to be in the warning area. Water running hard and fast in the creeks because it can't soak in through the frost levels in the ground. Temps hit 61 and not supposed to get below freezing for over a week. Oh well, we will do what we can/have to....
Funny thing is parts of Texas are in the 20's and 30's....topsy-turvy upside down weather patterns.

Have had bitter cold in Dec-mid Jan (way below zero with wind chills down to minus 35), then near-constant snow/sleet/freezing rain/rain-rain/back to freezing rain/snow snow snow/rain/freezing rain/sleet sleet sleet...
I AM SICK OF IT.
Roads here are quite steep and I'm getting old by the hour trying to keep it between the ditches. Our highway crew thinks we have hovercraft or ice skates or some alternate mode of transit that I do not in fact possess.

The grass is growing I'll give you that. Otherwise it's not very comfortable around here. I'm hurting from the lack of doing nothing, sitting still is for office workers.M-5":2bsslx5x said:

No grass growing here. Probably take another month. I detest sitting. I like doing projects - it's what feeds the beast.

Been in the teens the last few days. Now today in the 40's and high 60's by Thursday. Really sloppy here. Everything is thawing out and now it is raining too just adding to the water.
