I'm guessing I got another .5" or so today. Looks like there may be more on the way. We needed a good soaking and over the next few days we'll get it. I kind of wish my trees were coming next week instead of the week after

Farmlogs shows a couple tenths at my place near Pequot Lakes Headquarters for QDMA. My neighbor about 15 miles north of you said .3. Rumors are that the ditches are full down towards Batman’s and probably MnFish. 3 inches in the last 24 hrs..... ATV trail in the swamp behind the house has a couple feet of water in the low spots by the looks of it. More on the way...... Rain can stop now..... LOLLLL |

The marsh nearest our house is full of water. As high as I've seen it I think. I assume there was still some frost in there and that's what is holding the water this high.

LOLLLL I’m what, about 20 miles from you and we’ve maybe had .5” in the last 24. Barely rained today, the sun popped out and was way warmer than anticipated. |

Just went for a walk. I'd checked the radar and thought a 45 minute break in the heavy stuff was possible. Nope. My creek is about as high as I've seen it in early April

We are close to 3 inches here. I had never seen the lake so low in April, and now it looks more normal. The rain has changed it from dry to wet in a hurry.

Any of you zona guys getting updates on the water situation down there? Is anyone getting concerned? It has not rained here in several weeks. If / When it does rain the desert will be in full bloom. Pretty slow in getting some color in the desert. Being it's a desert.....it's always dry here. But we sit over a huge aquifer and we have huge lakes to the north that are fed by the Colorado River. Some knowledgeable guys I know say that we should never have a water problem here. I have not heard anything on wildfires and such......if that is what your asking? Those could become a concern in summer. |

Drove to Alex and back a bit ago. First time I've been in a Menard's in over a year. There is standing water from here to there and back a different way. That heavy ground one either side of Osakis is just soaked. Standing water on rolling hills.
