How much rain ? ☔️

[Nightvision]

Very wet down in middle Georgia after a very dry April. We have had over 3” in the last week and half. It’s raining now with more on the way tonight and tomorrow

 

[Nightvision]

I’m about ready to say enough for now. But down here, you’re only ever a couple of weeks away from a drought.

Congrats on the rain everyone. I knew it was very dry up there.

I think we are up to 7-8 inches of rain in the past two weeks in Western MN.

Praying for rain here, just as soon as the hay is baled.

Thought it usually rained right after it got cut. That’s what seems to happen to our guys around here.

I would think this would mean less likely to have bad EHD ??

I would think the amount of rain locally says it should be a bad year for EHD, but I know of a leaking pond that will have a mud bank if it stops raining.

Im not convinced there is a meaningful correlation to rain and ehd. I used to think so. I've changed my mind.

Fall droughts seem to spell disaster for me. Maybe the heat makes it more deadly in those conditions? All my bad outbreaks have coincided with a hot dry early fall.

After two years of praying for rain after the past summer droughts my prayers were answered but, it can stop for a while! Never had this much rain during the summer, too wet for some crops and way too much mowing.

I certainly hope so. Hopefully August and September turn out okay.

Got another 3/10 middle of the night.
Gonna plant brassicas soon and since they are saying another inch tonight, I spread about 100lbs of urea over bout 3/4 acres 2 hours ago Ground was Purdy white.
Just went out to spot spray some missed weeds and the urea is Gone?

Ground is black. Did the moist soil dissolve it that fast and soak it in?
Or did it volatile that fast?
