Good to get the rain today, the rest of the week looks very isolated. My area is in a dry zone the past several months. The first round of storms went just east and this last batch went just west. I did manage to get .06 of rain but that won't do much of anything. The grass will probably stay brown the rest of the summer. Haven't had to cut the grass since mid-June. Just give me a nice .25 of soaking rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
