Had 1/2" last night and today in the past 2 hours 1" fell. At least its' something. I talked to a customer in central Illinois yesterday and he said in July they have had 19" rain.

Had 2.5" in about two hours today at the house. That's the first measurable rain in three weeks.

Not enough to get the grass wet. Pond is noticeably going down. Peaches on trees are drying up Ohio co.

Finally getting a little rain right now. Enough to knock the dust down a little, but could use much more.

New map…. See some yellow! I guess the rest of us are just normally dry. I mowed the grass Sunday afternoon and I don't think it has grown any at all yet. We could use a good, all-day rain.

A whopping .13” out of all that. Sure looked like it would be more.

I'm maybe 30 miles SSW of deadeer and I had 1.1" last night. At least the grass isn't blue any more. The food plot still could use more - it hasn't grown much in the last 2 weeks. Beets and turnips.

I was wrong. Water gauge 0. Wife teaches 1.5 miles away. She stated 5 minutes of very light rain.

Thundered again for hours and didn’t get a dang drop. Radar once again blew up all around us, but somehow didn’t get us.

Last night, I started my annual firewood cutting marathon. I cut a HUGE dead oak tree in a creek bottom. It hit a soft maple tree about 18 or so inches across and uprooted it. I pulled the stump this morning and there was ZERO moisture in the root ball, about 2 feet down. I mean, powder dry,we could use a little shower!

I was driving in Indy, going past the fairgrounds around 3pm today, going East. partially cloudy skies, maybe 50% cloud cover, no rain. I watched a bolt of lightening come down directly in front of me, maybe a mile away. NO rain clouds, etc.
Just if you guys/gals are out in open areas, and if you hear thunder, get out the open areas and don't hide beneath a tree. It can come when you least expect it.
I was on my way from Missouri to Noblesville to stock 1,000# of 2#-5# Channel Cats in a pay lake there.

The “Bambi Buffett” (oats, radishes, turnips, rye and buckwheat) is tilled and planted. Just waiting on “Ida” to water it..
