  • Will It?

    There is an 80% chance of rain in the area according to the <a href="http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/byz">National Weather Service</a>. The question in my mind is if it will rain or not. For some reason I doubt it. Hopefully I will be wrong.<br />n<br />nIt really struck me Tuesday how bad I need some rain. A semi came…

  • Bounce Around the Mind

    It's one of those damn things that nothing works out the way you want. All the rain this spring was great, nut the thing I feared is coming true. It is turning hot and dry and the fire danger is going up very fast around here. I know I am still haying but a rainstorm…

  • Not Yet

    I was going to try to cut a little hay down yesterday so I could get the haying started. I always say the hay doesn't dry standing up, but it definitely doesn't dry when it rains. Yes, again we got another half inch of rain and now have to wait until the ground is dry…

  • Rain

    It is totally unbelievable this year. After years of drought we are getting so much rain the country can't use it. It's all running off. Billings didn't get that much but the <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.net/articles/2007/06/07/news/state/20-storm.txt">creeks around it are flooding</a> from the greater amounts upcountry. Over 4 inches in the Pryors. <br />n<br />nWe got around 2-3…

  • Changes

    It's amazing the difference a year can make. Last year I would have given anything to get some rain. This year I am to the point I will give anything to get it to quit raining. It has rained the last 3 days here and we have gotten over 4 inches of rain. Total in…

  • Night And Day

    The difference between this year and last year is like the difference between night and day when it comes to the weather. Last year we got very little rain in this area and really suffered for it. This year, all it does is rain. Since last week we have gotten a rain shower of some…

  • Rain

    Okay, this is ridiculous. It's the 8th of March and it's raining here. The ground is still frozen underneath and there is still snow and ice around in places. Adding rain to this slushy, muddy, icy, miserable ground we have around here is not necessary. It just makes the cattle, My Darling Wife, and me…

  • Rain Problems

    I'm lucky. All it's seems to do lately is rain around here but that doesn't bother me. We are storing moisture in the ground for next year and actually growing a little grass. It's not good for all people though.<br />n<br />n<a href="http://www.billingsgazette.net/articles/2006/10/26/news/local/20-beets.txt" >Rain could spoil record sugar beet harvest</a><br />n<br />n<blockquote>Seldom does one hear…

  • Weather

    Unbelievable. It doesn't rain all summer and now it seems like it can't stop. When I went to bed last night we had 3/4" of rain and it rained most of the night so I don't know how much we had. I know it's getting ridiculous though. I noted last evening that the water is…
