Moved to a D1 drought here per the latest: droughtmonitor.unl.edu/What I’m surprised about is the decent growth put on by smaller trees around here. 3-10 year old White pines, apples, oaks, etc all putting on decent growth so far.

Small amount of rain here, maybe .2 ?
West of Starbuck has had 2 inches total and there’s water in the low spots in the fields ! Crazy

So dry here the deer are hitting the birdbath mid day now. Geez! In dry years I'm thankful for the ditch/crick on one side of my property and the environmental lake on the other side.

Much needed rain is hitting a drought area in Western Iowa. It looks like it could be an inch or slightly more…My farm is not in the terrible drought area, but it close. The farmers are going to be so happy !

Was suppose to get decent rain at land today, just got a little over a tenth of an inch. Not even enough to settle dust. Starting to worry a little about the beans and sugar beets I panted Memorial weekend.

Missed all rain again today. About a month since measurable rain here.
It looks like there is a chance in the next 2 hours, but it sure seems like the clouds part before they get here. I spent another night watering apple trees and the garden. My plots are kn their own but I sure hope the weather cooperates soon.

I am tired of hauling water to the garden, night after night.

I'm not sure I've seen corn curling up this early in the year before.

I'm not sure I've seen corn curling up this early in the year before. I hauled 5 buckets of water to the garden this morning, mainly for evening watering. I am tired of this all ready. I have 2/13 newly planted apple trees to water before I start again. When do we give up?

I string up the hoses and turn on the spigot and the sprinkler does the work. However, I'm not going to water fruit trees. They're on their own. If they die, they die.

3 days ago, the weather guru's said widespread inch rainfall for us, then Saturday morning it was maybe 1/4 inch of rain. We got maybe a tenth of an inch of rain. Our beans amd corn somehow are growing but they need rain badly.
