[QUOTE="Allen, post: 343928, member: 389"] By and large, yes it is soaking into the ground. This time of year only the heaviest thunderstorms produce much runoff. While we've seen thunderstorms capable of producing good runoff, they have mostly hit the part of the state from roughly Emmons county and all points east. Once you get east of Jamestown, all the runoff from their heavy rains is in Hudson's Bay drainage. Out here in the west and central part of the state, we haven't seen nearly as strong of runoff, especially upstream of Garrison dam. Check out this map of soil moisture values as percentiles: [url]https://weather.msfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/basicLooper.pl?category=lis_DAKOTAS&initialize=first&regex=vsm0-100percent_20220512[/url] As a state, we haven't been this wet in a pretty long time! This is the homepage for maps like the above with quite a few different ways to look at it.
