New Week

At least we had a better start this morning when I woke up and found we hadn't had any more rain overnite. According to my rain guage, we had 53 milimetres since noon on Sep 14th. Yesterday we had 7 mm of rain. However, today is still staying overcast so who knows whether we'll get any more of the wet stuff.

The rain definitely is nice to soak the ground. The farmers that are not finished harvest will not be liking it though as I'm sure the fields are one big mud pie about now. Around Hanley, it appears as if most of the harvest is complete. Of course there is lot's of work for the farmers to do to prepare for next season's crops. It would be nice to get a bit of sunshine and dry things up a tad so they can finish up.

Time will tell.
