And we finally got some snow in Eastern Washington! About 5 to 6 inches of nice, wet snow. In fact, I am going to plow the driveway for the first time this season--the tractor is plugged in right now.
We are way behind on moisture. A dry year in 2013, but rain when needed to give decent dryland crops. But we are already an inch behind on moisture in January and down to about 2/3 of average moisture from the year 2013. We had none of the usual snow cover during the very cold several weeks in December.
