Yea we're so wet too right now. over 3 inches in 2 days. Some of the corn is drowned out, might have to replant.
Fixing equipment up, getting pastured poultry pens predator proofed, checking fence lines.... We find somethign to do.. but I'd rather be cultivating the fields this week, weeds are coming in quick.
Dry here, and we're waiting for rain. Hopefully today. No rain, no grass, but the bright side - the garden is weeded.
Watching the gorgeous peony blossoms get saturated and fall over into the mud. Wearing socks. Yeah, meh.
Is this amount of rain hard on hay crops or just impedes timely cutting? Is it better than too little rain?
Too much on anything---rain, snow, wind, sun...is just that...TOO MUCH!!!

George, it is such a pain! Every time the sun comes out for a minute everybody runs out to get whatever done they can...but it doesn't come out much
Nita, we would send rain if we could
NW same here, they just droop and drown. So glad to see you here. I was worried about you...should call I know but...
Cathy, the rain can cause the hay to fall down and be hard to pick up with the mower, but mostly it just stops anything at all from getting done.
Linda, exactly! I don't mind a little rain at all, but weeks and weeks of it this time of year is terrible.
