MN Transplant Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 It seems pretty lush here, but we have been missed a lot recently. Yeah, we are overall doing fine, but the new stuff into the ground needs water. And like an idiot, I thought rain was coming so I put in grass seed about a week ago. Whiff.

BlizzardNole Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Yeah, we are overall doing fine, but the new stuff into the ground needs water. And like an idiot, I thought rain was coming so I put in grass seed about a week ago. Whiff. Wish we could share some of ours! It's rained so dang much that the soil was soaked well into the ground when I planted stuff the other day, to the point I'm worried about it being too saturated for the new plantings.

Ian Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 Cycling? a lot of supercells (not like the one's in today's high risk which are holding huge couplets for 100s of miles) go through cycles which is partly why you get tornado families from the same storm .. it 'skips' around as the rotation tightens and weakens.
