We've had about 24" of rain in the last 4 weeks. Soggy as can be. Lots of flash flooding and closed / wiped out bridges and roads out in the county. Beaver Lake (@ 10 miles away) is 15-16' above normal pool, 4 weeks ago it was 3-4' below normal pool. We're good for a while, BTW.

Wish we could send some of it your way, Sam . . .

Last two days in Oklahoma have been monsoons. We needed it. Today is bluebird bright!

Glad you boys are taking over our Monsoon Season for us.

We've been treading water out here in Oregon since December.

It's a little different in the high desert. A few days ago we had just under 1/2" of rain. For the week. So far this year, we've had 4.8" which is about average. We get 7 to 8" a year. Irrigation is a big deal here.

Guys already have pumps running around here.

We usually don't fire ours up until early July....


According to the internet we have had 1.55" of precip so far this year.

About half of normal I think.



Starting to get a little nervous myself.

The rain different places sounds like the old gag about the man with one foot in a wood burner, and the other in a block of ice. He said it all averages out.
