...is what it's become down here in Southern Georgia.

It has rained daily for more days in a row than I can count. I dont remember the last day without rain.

Beaver work has stopped as water is pouring over their dams. They can't even keep up...lol

Send some of it up above the Mason-Dixon please !!!

We got 1.1" yesterday and that's the first meaningful rain we've had in weeks.

Was down on Tybee (right by Savannah) last week. Rained every day at least some................

Pouring over is saying something as your area is about as flat as a pool table.

No rain and 100 degree temps every day makes for some bad times in my area. The cattle farmers will be hurting before winter.

I was on 285 northside around spaghetti junction this morning when the bottom fell out. Thought for sure it was about to be a pile up. Got off on Peachtree Industrial took the surface streets to my job.

We went an entire day with no rain on my sets, lol. The bottom just dropped out about an hour ago with more coming a little later. Would’ve been nice if we had gotten this when the crops went in the ground. But, I’ll take what we can get now. It really doesn’t matter if it rains or not, you’re going to come home soaked from humidity even if it doesn’t rain.
I rode through my next place to trap yesterday and was surprised at all the cover. I have no clue how I’m going to put a set in and make it looked natural. Even the feed trails are all grass now. The main road has some sandy spots so I’ll start there, lol.
This rain is filling up the wet weather holes as well. But we’re still so dry that 3” dries up with one day without rain.

It rained all day yesterday. Not hurting like some of you folks, but we needed it. Some of the corn was starting to get brown and curl up

Last summer was the wettest summer here ive ever seen, been pretty dry this year. Maybe with everyone riding electric scooters the climate will quit changing.

Good time to break dams.

We try to visit kinfolk in the Florida Panhandle every three or four years, but not in the summer. I don't know how I grew up in a house built in 1905 with no air-conditioning, and drove around in vehicles with no a/c till I was 25. It was 36 degrees on the thermometer here in our village in AK two nights ago. Slept good.

North Central Georgia as well. That set went through two heavy rains this week before connecting. It didn't get a remake, lol.
