I watched the radar yesterday hoping for some rain. Just planted 17 trees 2 days ago and the garden late last week. Radar looked coming up from Nebraska through to Sioux Falls and then dissipated over Sioux Falls... not a drop here. Got enough this morning to make the concrete look wet, but not enough to cover up where I had ran the water tote over..... pisser

I planted 425 new trees on Saturday and Sunday. They got about .35 so far on them. If we don't get another shot in the next 2 days ill be watering them by hand.

I guess green on the radar is not rain anymore. You must need yellow or red before it means anything. Have to go set up sprinklers on the garden now.

Yea I don't get that either. We waited a couple hours to hit Sak on Wednesday because the entire area was green and red on the radar. Expected muddy roads going in, instead we had dust. Didn't look like it had rained at all that morning!

We did have some ugly weather around here yesterday afternoon thou!

We were lucky and didn't get any hail, but did get some sweet video of one of the tornados though about 3/4 mile from our back pasture. 2.25 inches of rain in about 45 minutes.

Same thing here, held off on some outdoor work across town because the radar showed green. Wasted 2.5 hours of daylight because of it. Didn't get anything until the orange showed up.

It's raining here right now. Nice rain. It's been dry for so long the frogs forgot how to swim.

We had close to 5 inches the last two days. Turned our fields into giant lake.

Man that car must have a lot of miles on it! To see a car from Colorado get stuck in a hail storm in Montana as well as Sioux Falls South Dakota somewhere in the Saudi Arabia as well as Perth Australia all the matter of a few months that's pretty impressive.
