Its been raining here in West Texas where Im at for several days.. today was the first day its been clear.:rolleyes:

[IdahoBullRider]

Had a little but now we got high winds. Real fun.:)

[MSBull]

Consider yourself blessed b/c we haven't had any substantial rain for about a month in a half now. And the next seven days does not have any showing.

:(

mountains even got a dusting of snow a few weeks ago. More like monsoon season here but that's not for another 3 months (I hope!).

[billsummers]

WE've had 1/3 inch all year, no hay anywhere, plenty of flames tho

[Travis Eckroth]

i'm getting some now!

[TexasAngel]

I know in Oklahoma my sister has gotten a total of 8 inches in a month. We have gotten alot here too. But I'm not complaining I enjoy the rain.

[MSBull]

Bill I have been thinking of you out there in the flames. I have not heard anything about assistance yalls way. What is the Governor or his brother going to do to help out.


For those of you that have never fought a wildfire...... Well you don't want to. Believe you me you don't want to. Hell on earth!!!!

Keith,
So far it's been mostly in uninhabited areas. THe smoke can be bad depending on the winds. About all that can be done is keep them away from towwns. We need a tropical depression or hurricane to come in.
Part of the problem in fighting it is lack of manpower, as the NAt'l Guard used to do that.

We got a new Gov in January.

It snowed here today in MT

Hello,Hello, I hate to say it, but Bill is right. It may take a hurricane to break our drought. I had to buy hay today, the pasture is looking bad, and hay is in limited amounts if you can find it down here. :mad:

[socattleco]

we sure have been wet,i never got any wheat laid down that i wanted to bale now everything i have will be cut for grain,these wet days though make it hard to get the combines in the field.

[BullPuncher]

We've been pretty dry up till now. Our northern forest area was really dry and was just waiting to go up in flames. Now we're finally getting some rain and looks like several days of it. A state like Minnesota, with over 15000 lakes, should never be dry.., it just don't seem right!

Ask again about mid-July. I'm sure it'll be a completely different story.

Got about 3/4" yesterday, in about 30 minutes. My Uncle was in the hay field at the time, but was glad to get it anyway. Only had about 25 bales that didn't get rolled up. He needs the rain at his house for his watermelon field.

[Sunset_Buckers]

I got about an inch last night. The last 3 or 4 years were pretty dry in central Texas. This year so far so good. I hope everyone gets what they need. Good Luck

[Cockpit]

It has rained enough earlier in the year to last a good while. We have around 125 round bales off the first cutting this past weekend. Rained about 3/4 inch this morning, had to cancel the fertilizer truck coming back out.

[JustinCrawford]

over the past 2 months i bet we have had around 10-12" of rain

[rowelroller]

Rain? What the heck is that stuff?????? ;):(

[Lyle Johnson]

We got rain yesterday until about 1700 hrs when it turned to snow. It was 22 degrees this morning about 0800. It is still trying to snow right now.

we could use a drink on our hay up here too.

It's been raining off and on since Sunday, steady since Monday afternoon and snow about 500 feet above us. My pens look like swamps, Bill is sending his gators and snakes. It beats him coming for a visit!!! :rolleyes:

[oly]

He's sending his PETS ??? When did you get on his good side??? :p RKO

[Buckerette]

We got a little rain today and got lots last week (almost flooded the basement).

[rghstkcwby]

It rained so bad here in Temple, Killeen & Harker Heights! Flooded out alot of places and seen a few cows takein a pasture bath!

[Travis Eckroth]

got some today too...

[RJP]

Sorry for everyone that's needin rain! We went from the worst 3 yrs for rain to the best I've ever seen! The worst drought we ever had started with a 2 inch rain! Hope you get rain soon!

Got 4 inches in one day-- 2 Sundays ago. Then have gotten a little over an inch since then. IT is REALLY wet north east of us. They are flooded. But, u are right, fires are no fun. I would rather see it flood than have to fight fires. God be with you guys. Hay and crops look good here.
God bless, Jen

[LightningD]

Got six inches last night. If it rains tonight, I am going to get my baby calves some snorkels.

His PETS were actually the feature menu items on our "This beats actually living in Florida" banquet! They were tasty and they do taste like chicken! :D

[HGS]

We have sunflowers ten feet tall down here in south Texs. dont want them, but can probably make more out of dove hunting than bull raising. We are still having rains. HS
