Rain

[Jane]

Can someone let us know how much it has rained in Howard. We have received rain everyday but received the most last night with over 2 inches. The creeks here are still not running. How are Elk and Paw Paw doing?

Haven't been out today to look at creeks.
For the month of July I have had a total of 6 1/2 inches in my gauge
For the month of August I have had a total of 4.70 in my gauge with more to come tonight.

Our friend Leo Noland just came back after being gone a month or so and he keeps an official gauge for the weather people.......and had over 12 inches in just this past month alone.  This morning my gauge had 2 and 1/2 inches. I know I emptied it yesterday......water, water everywhere and now, I really need some sun. gee.........enough all ready.

I returned home this afternoon after being gone since last Monday morning. I emptied out 1 1/2 inches from the rain gauge before I left and there was five more inches when I arrived home today. Not ready to holler "uncle" just yet, but this little break is nice. The Arkansas river was half way up the dike when I crossed it at Ark City this noon. Lots of water everywhere. Glub, glub!

Regardless of what Biden says, I'll need one to battle my yard forest. Have a chance to mow it, it rains. Don't have a chance to mow it, it doesn't rain.

Absolutely happy with the rain though. Wasn't sure I could handle another year like the last two.
