Mid July and most of the media out there is lamenting over
the worsening drought picture for the Central US.
To hear them talk, we’d be luck to see ANY rainfall before Christmas (OK, maybe
I am exaggerating a bit).
Not true, at least for my little spot on planet earth near
Forsyth Missouri!
We had a nice steady rain this morning (July 14) that measured .44 inches. The
combined with the previous rainfall comes to 1.28 inches or about half of the
normal 3.15 inches that falls during a ‘normal’ July. Now, while this will by no means break the
drought, it’s still better than nothing. Only downside in my mind will be the
need now to cut the grass. Something I haven’t had to do since late June!
