Rainfall

With all of the posts about folks who are dealing with too much rain, are we here in NC the only ones who are too dry?

No, I haven't had enough rain in the last three years to fill either of my small ponds.

here in Michigan, it rains about every 24 hours with one of them being 4-1/2" in 2 hours! This is the worst since "83 summer.

(quoted from post at 22:59:44 06/17/10) No, I haven't had enough rain in the last three years to fill either of my small ponds.

Our wettest year in the past three. Took 1 1/2 months to get the first 5 inches, 4 1/2 months to get the next 5 and last week we got 6 1/2. Somewhere near average rainfall for the year to date, but little fell when it did much good. I imagine 5 inches of what we got last week is in the Gulf by now and we already need another rain.

I guess this is your worst year. Looks like the drought is moving east or northeast. Year before last we were just on the eastern edge, last year sort of in the middle and it has been raining fairly regular just to the south and southwest of us this year.

Sure is getting old never knowing when or if you will get a rain. If it will be next week or six weeks. Course, last fall it was raining 3 days at a time every three to four days.
