Whatever you're dealing with, I'm sure it's worse in Stephens City. That's interesting though. I don't think I've seen one in about a year. I remember they they used to always find a way inside our place, and you couldn't kill them without stinking up the room in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely decimated the entire crop on my tree. They did a number on my plums this year, too.

We haven't had a problem with them getting inside, but our Peach tree was lousy with them until all the fruit rotted off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grass is toast. I have 0.94" for the month. The problem is I base my watering schedule on NWS forecasts- that's probably a bad idea. I assume when it says 80% or even 100% chance of rain I'll get something... yeah, bad idea as I've learned multiple times this year. From now on I'm just watering every day assuming it will never rain again regardless of the forecast. Actually, after this system it looks like that's probably true anyway.

H2O Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 It HAS to rain everywhere today. You could grab the air with your hand, squeeze it and have water come out. Its that humid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Remember, high pop does not necessarily equal high QPF, and thunderstorms have a way of being nice to some areas and not to others. I had 80 pops in for later today when i did the forecast Tuesday night, but still deluged everything yesterday afternoon. The hit and miss that goes on with Tstorms is why I have never been a huge severe person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
