June REALLY blows around here this year !!
I have mowed grass at least 4 times as much as last year. Had maybe 2 days on the Silverwing, and am so sick of 20 to 90 percent rain chances, I sure hope we get a super strong drought beginning late august thru end of november !!
At this rate, the lawnmower will be worn out, the paint will have been polished thru to primer on the silverwing. And, I will be 10 pounds beer weight heavier by labor day if this rain pattern continues !!

I second that.
It hasn't been much better on this side of the state.

Same in ohio... way too much rain. From what I'm seeing it isn't good for the crops either. Bad news for the farmers.

Way too much rain up here too. It is an agricultural disaster in a lot of areas. Millions of acres not even seeded and many more that did get seeded now, drowned out.

Yeah, both good and bad for farming here.
Guy's who got stuff in have exceptional crops in this very sandy soil. Corn looks way ahead of typical.
I have some good tomatoes goin , but one strain is allready splitting the fruit from too much water , and they are only half dollar size at this point.
May was awesome, above normal temps with normal rain.....but June is something like 4 outta 5 days clouds, showers or rain.
Very low attendance at outdoor events. Our river outfitter is about half down customer wise from last year this time.
Just wait......this will evolve to low 90s and blazing sun here next month.......just when the 7 day a week ballbusting river grunt marathon kicks in .

Light beer , regular beer , whatever beer ........if it wasnt for the under $13 selection of 30 paks around here , I doubt I would be sane at this point !
Gennesse cream ale light at $12 a 30 pak works well in the heat !!
