| It seems like it has been foggy every day this year, and by the news this morning I am just about right. They said that we have had 53 days of fog so far in 2010. I don't know how many days/weeks after the fog you are suppose to get moisture, but if that holds true, we should be getting alot of it.

"90 days past the fog brings moisture"....
Same up here...We figure it will start raining in April and go thru June...My 85 year old Father in law told me yesterday I better start building an Ark..
Pea soup fog last night- then during the night the wind switched and when I checked cows at 6AM the fog had lifted and the temp had rose to 32..Weatherguessers are saying this may be the end of our fog for awhile..
A new front moving thru- which is predicted to not do much here- but supposed to dump some wet snow on the SE part of Montana and parts of SD and Neb.....

| fog here again. seems like we get to see the sun about 2 days a week. starting to get old. i moved the bred heifers from their winter pasture to the heifer hotel this morning. it didn't quite go as planned, as they didn't know where they were going, but wouldn't have been able to see it if they did. but i got them there.

| I sure hope this fog is right,because with no snow this winter.If it doesn't rain in the spring,we are sure going to be in trouble this year!!As for the fog it all depends on who you ask,some say 90 days the rest say 100.
