Dang Sam those crops look rough. Hoping for some rain down there for you guys.

We got a little rain but up here but not near what you would expect in storms systems like we had.

I hope you (and the rest of us who need it) get rain soon. That corn looks bad with all the ends curled. We too missed out on the rain Friday adn Yesterday in eastern summit county.

Well we finally got a decent rain. 1.2 inches that came slow enough that little ran off.

Had a tornado warning right over J's house but didn't hear of any damage.

Good too hear you finally got some usable rain Sam.... We got a lot of wind and thunder but no damage too speak of never lost power and haven't heard of any damage too anyone close by..... Dodged another one I guess.... We've been pretty lucky compared too our brothers down south and too the west of us.....

Poured this morning for a bit. Hopefully I can mow soon but it has been TOO dry. I need to let it go so it isn't so crunchy.

No substantial precip since the 6/10th we got this past weekend. We got 1/10 the two weeks before that. Pretty dry here in the SW still.
