Weather Issues

Just realized we do not have a good place where we can go to complain about the lack of rain or weather conditons at our places. I need to vent sometimes. Grin.

Finally....after a few weeks of warm temps and NO rainfall....we are getting two days of plentiful rainfall. I think we got an inch or so at this point. And it was just in time....as my brassica leaves were beginning to shrivel up and I had some fertiizer that never got rained on. I think this is going to set up my plots for a great fall hunt. I got lots of decent clover , brassica, and winter rye to eat....and this rain will make the day. Blessed yet again.

I dug up a few of my garden beds to plant garlic on Sunday. I was surprised they were as dry as they were.

Local news stations are calling this Augtober. Weather in the mid to upper 80s, warm nights and the long drought continues. The first break may come Friday or Saturday.

Haven’t had a decent rain here since early August. Local weather gurus say we are 9” below average for this time of year.
Has put a lot of stress on trees they are turning early, our pond is down a couple feet and I haven’t mowed the yard in over a month.
Didn’t effect the crops much they had plenty of rain earlier on, bumper crops with well over half off already and dry enough not to get docked right out of the fields. Double crop beans are stunted and turning now.
Had been very hot and dry, now cool and dry. Temps won’t even reach 70 today.
Most of my apples and pears dropped early.
