About half way through planting plots today. Talk about miserable. It’s a dust bowl. It might be the first time I’ve ever planted with no expectation of success whatsoever.
My weather app is stubbornly forecasting rain for Monday. The chance has gone up every day. Now saying 100% of significant rain. Not one other weather site is calling for it though. I sure hope the app fellas are right!!Plant on brother ! I planted in dust and I have wheat poking through after only two half inch rains in the last month or more. Plant it and they will come !
(if you get a little rain)
Yes The Weather Channel is showing 100% for Monday. The wheat and Rye that I did have sprout after planting 2 months ago couldn’t take the dry and it sprouted, got to the 3 leaf stage and then died. I threw another 50 lbs of wheat I had out yesterday just because but I have no expectations of it. Muzzleloader starts tomorrow and I have never had less expectations than this year. Haven’t had a buck picture since the wounded buck disappeared and the neighbors are really taking a toll early morning and late evening...hot and 30 mph winds forecast for the weekend and only getting down to about 70 Saturday night.My weather app is stubbornly forecasting rain for Monday.

Got all but one small plot finished, I’ll do the last Saturday morning. Then it’s time to hunt!
Are your neighbors poaching the deer or shooting them legally?Yes The Weather Channel is showing 100% for Monday.

Poachers but here you almost have to catch them yourself on video and turn it in to get anything at all done…Are your neighbors poaching the deer or shooting them legally?
Looks like you’re forecasted to get over twice the amount of rain as us. I hope we all get a good soaking, but we’ll see, my drought jadedness is showing once again.
It’s a really “dry” rain down this way...I can see the drops but working outside won’t even get you damp...weird...Nice big rain has been a major disappointment so far, but hey what’s new? Down to a forecasted 3/4” now…. Might help the food plots a little, but will do jack for the pastures and ponds. Rancher/farmer tears are bigger than the rain drops.
It has been “raining” since before daylight and our road is still dusty...dry rain...Same here Okie, this isn’t real rain. It seems to be getting swallowed before it even hits the ground.
I just can’t quite figure how central MO is again forecasted to get big rain, the system is mainly SW of us right now and has to go through us to get to central MO, so why isn’t it raining like that on us???? My brother-in-law will be telling us how many inches they’re getting in Bolivar again soon I’m guessing.
