how dry I am

John,---about the same here, ( not an inch), BUT this light stuff don't put much in the gauge!! lol!!! thanks; sonny
 
John We are under a flood warning for the next couple of days. Melting snow, warm temperatures and rain. Vern
 
Rains started here today,---put 0.75 or so this far.--they say chance of light rain all week.--We shall see!!! thanks; sonny
 
we have gotten a little over 1 1/2 inch of rain spread over the last 5 days, and with warm weather today, I am seeing some sprigs of green here and there. Something I have not seen in several months.
 
81/100" rain over the last 12 hours. Nice soaker in type rain. Currently raining.

Low water crossings were fine, no over flow. Normally 3/4" of rain would put water over the low water crossings' road way.
 
OH great! First, long time extremely dry, then moderate drought, now we are in a flood watch, plus freezing rain. And more rain in the forecast.

Sump pump in basement has been running off and on most of the day. Shop vac with water pump, every so often we have been vacuuming up seepage in the basement.

No use going to the acreage until at least 24 hours after it quits raining, then have to dig out the culverts under the low crossings.
 
as of 7:08 pm we have 3.33" and still coming down---eeeerrr across!!!--- horizontal rain, wind over 35 straight line or higher with gusts.---flooded fields because ground still froze down deep! thanks; sonny
 
Freezing rain. 95 Dodge pickup is frozen solid. Exterior door handles won't move. Told wife that if we really needed to go any place that we could get out the garden hose and hose down the pickup.

Watched the mailman use, I assume a rubber mallet, break the ice on an apartment units mail box. No mail today, our RFD mail box is frozen shut.

Edit. Hour and 15 minutes after previous post, freezing drizzle. Weather forecast, above freezing around noon, tomorrow.

Ya gotta watch what you ask for John. Thought you knew that... :lol:
 
still being blessed by rain with more coming. It is going to take all of it to bring us up to normal levels, unless it is so hard it runs off before soaking in, then we will need more.

If anyone would like a copy of my excel program for tracking rain send me an email at ejpuckett@centurytel.net, and I will send it to you. It is pretty simple, if I can use it anyone can.
 
Soil temperature is 41 degrees down to 4". Things are starting to green up, with all the recent rain and moderate temperatures. Spring is just around the corner. Maybe the next corner.
 
They're forecasting winter conditions in north MO and spring weather in south MO for tomorrow. Choose your weather.

We're in the middle. Rain. Clouds. Cool temps.

I'm still going to change the oil in my lawn tractors and Cubs tomorrow anyway. :wink:
 
supposed to be 62 with rain tomorrow, but 62 will not come till pretty late in the day. Weather service says that even with all this rain we will still be 8 inches behind on rain.
 
Last night we had a storm whip thru here, high winds, but only 0.30 " of actual rain.---looks clear for several days, higs only upper 40's to lower 50's predicted. thanks; sonny
 
I have no idea of the total rain and amount of water from melting snow but we have more than enough. Rivers are over their banks,roads are closed, bridges are closed until their foundations can be inspected. Rivers are beginning to crest but the St Joseph river at Three Rivers is not expected to crest until next Sunday. At one point it was four feet above flood stage and rising. Several personal watercraft were running down the street along with small boats and canoes. I live on high ground so not a personal problem. Vern
