I know you guys suffering from lack of rain will not like to hear me
complain about it but 15 inches of rain in 30 days is a bit more than I
want to see. Some violent thunderstorms brought hail and high winds. A
couple of miles south of me the canola crop looks pretty sick and if it
recovers it will be a late crop almost surely frozen. We just had
another good half inch this morning. I have to admit that everything is
sure growing though. Have a look at the water in my field last monday. I
don't recall ever seeing such an accumulation before.
