It’s hard for me me to think of the high desert on the Mexican border as being in ‘drought’. It’s a dry climate that gets most of its little rain this time of year.
And, yep, it’s likely to be a record corn crop that’s selling below cost of most production. Probably record soybeans too.

Not any more since I fell 12” off the ladder. And it’s Cactus not Woods out here.

What state is that in ? After the storm, I'd say disrepair...

A few years ago the drought was centered more on El Paso. Since then it has moved a bit NE into the TX and OK panhandle. Joe Bastardi said earlier this year that due to the the shift in the ocean temps in the Pacific that rain would fall west of I-35 (runs through the middle of OK, KS, TX, and northward). So far he was been correct. Slowly but surely it has rained more and more west of that interstate. He's thinking that a hurricane might even possibly run up in to Baja Mexico and into southern CA and AZ.

There are still millions of dead trees all over Texas from that one. And all the reservoirs in West Texas are still bone-dry.
To: Jack Hydrazine
Well not to be snarky...but any meteorologist worth his salt can predict that here. It happens every year, called the monsoon. And it’s miserable. We are hoping its wetter than normal of course.

Might be a good time for corn lobbyists to prod the EPA to increase the ethanol mandate in gasoline. Can’t have a bumper crop reduce food prices. /s

I counted up 21 Springfields one time; might be even more.

I know southwest Kansas had record rainfalls last month. Finney County set an alltime county record with almost 12”, consider that they usually get about 20” in a year, Ford County where Dodge CIty is had almost 10”, just shy of a record amount. THe problem though is that the rain came down so much it hasn’t really soaked in much.
To: SandRat
Please send any leftovers to Texas. Thanks.

“He’s thinking that a hurricane might even possibly run up in to Baja Mexico and into southern CA and AZ.”
I sure hope so. We really need the rain. I think the last one was around 1996-98 or there abouts.
To: SandRat
That’s three consecutive days of heavy rain now. The Monsoon is definitely here.
I hope this forebodes a good season.

Too bad they removed so many dams or they could capture the runoff in reservoirs.

Well, it is supposed to be “monsoon season” out that way. They are hoping for rain and they need rain, and now we get some story that they’re getting some rain and it is put in a bad way.....
