Water is running over #4 highway just south of town tonight-the little creeks that drain into the lake are all over their banks. I've only seen water over that road a couple times.
Drought Over For A Bit

Talked to a guy just across the boarder north of Opheim and he said they have gotten nearly 9 inches of rain the last few weeks!!! That has got to be close to the total moisture they get in a year. I bet the grass will be great up there for a change.

You said it, the last few years we haven't gotten more than 4 or 5 inches.
But even with that, we could be in pretty desperate straights by the end of June if it were to quit..... Favorite saying in the area is that 'we're only 3 weeks away from a drought at any time' ....

At least you will have grass, it may dry out later, but you should get some good growth now.

Ty said it's running over the next road north now-if they wash out could be interesting.

Looking south down the ditch it jumped this road last night.
Running over 304 west
Not sure the berm will hold
I think this was already seeded
This is backwater creek about three miles upstream from where that floodwater is headed it runs through about 3/4 mile of my pasture alot of water coul;d back up into there but it will raise cain with the Canada thistle.
