I was just informed this morning that we are starting out our irrigating season with 60% water flow. It could dip down to as low as 40%(or even less) toward the end of the season. We really need some rain and snowfall in the high mountains.Looks like it is going to be a long tough hard summer. Could get ugly.:(
 
That's about what we have has the last 4 years. This year will be the same or worse. Last year we got one watering. Made horrible hay some fields 3 small square bales an acre.
 
Its dry

Craig, where are you? I am in the Delta Montrose area of western Colorado.We get our water from the Blue Mesa Reservoir system.
 
Sorry to hear this Steve,, still in a bad drought here too,, if my math is right I have gotten less than 2 of H20 since last September, buddy of mine lives in rapid City SD,, they have a bad timber fire raging towards Rapid as I type 50 plus mph winds and DRY conditions are not helping at all either,, they are evacuating people from the subdivisions it bearing down on right now,, winds are starting to ease up here,,40 range now was up to 60 mph
 
A semi was laying on its side at the New Underwood interchange this afternoon when I went by. High winds were really bad.
 
I sure wish I could send the majority of what we've been getting to those of y'all that need it. I'd even pay the shipping. Lol. It has been and continues to be wet. Getting 3 plus at a time sometimes several times a week. Been trying to fumigate tobacco land but can't go cause it's way too wet. Plants are ready to transplant but can't get in the field. Forget about planting any corn. Just frustrated with time starting to not be favorable.

Steve, locals are talking about water shares off of McPhee Reservoir will be way down again this year as water levels will be down due to the lack of snow shed again.
 
Sorry to hear that Steve. Wish I could send you some. Waiting for it to dry up a bit here. I posted a couple pictures of my plow converted over with your prongs on the Farmall forum.
