Rain!

Lord, please save some of this rain for July and August.

Over six inches in some areas and still coming down!

From what I have seen of this storm over the last couple of days, If you don't wash away you might get Dorothied into Oklahoma or Kansas. Batten down your hatches and hold onto your hat!!!

We got 9-10 inches of unexpected snow today. The weather is certainly pretty screwy lately. Can't wait for what happens in the normally bad weather season. Guess it's preview time, eh?

Let It Rain!!!!!!!yeahhhhhh!!!!!!!

Charley, so far, we've gotten close to 3 inches ove rthe last 10 days and the one your talking about is just arriving here... I hope we can squeeze 6 inches out of it!!!
Just remember that every drop we get now is a few pennies off the price of the hay they'll be cutting in June!!!

It's been raining up here for the past 2 days. I don't mind it though cause we need it. But I did just wash my truck.

I spent 7yrs in Fort.Levenworth KS, i've been through and seen some serious tornadoes/thunderstorms. One of the coolest things you can whitness in person.

I heard you guys got some snow in that area, not exactly in L.A. but around there, I don't remember where.

Yeee Hawwwww!!!!!! Wow we needed this so bad!!!!! Maybe Lake Lavon will finally fill up and us in this area can actually wash our vehicles again with our own water hose. The last 2 years have been dry as can be. Maybe now we can have a little relief from the restrictions etc....as well as grow some hay. Without rain, we all die!

It was kind of a pain tonight working in this slop, but I was smiling the whole time!! Bring it on!!! Give us another 5-10 inches or rain and that is fine with me!

I'm not sure the water restrictions will ever end around here. With the unstable weather patterns and the population growth there is just not enough water storage. I think the folks that control water useage are finally starting to realize it.

I think you are right, unfortunately. Growth is coming for sure. Sedalia will be like Frisco or McKinney in a few years, so they better start building some reservoirs quick.
