God dammit. I just mowed on Saturday and am debating if I mow again tonight or try to wait till tomorrow, but looks like rain tomorrow night at some point as well.

Was planning to overseed my lawn this fall. That would be just my luck that it rains every damn week all summer then turns dry for fall.

LOL right?!?

The last few falls, my aeration plugs were about 0.25 inches deep as the yard has been crusty dry... I doubt that will be the case this year. Morning dew in the fall goes a long ways though!

Farmers don’t remember what it’s like having a wet fall. I think the past 6 have been very dry. Remember the later part of 2018 getting pretty wet.

KCCI TV said central Iowa could get some rain last night, but they underestimated the amount. They are calling for northern Iowa to get dumped on again late tonight and pretty much all of central Iowa get dumped on late Tuesday night.
I don't remember seeing any amounts?

Sounds like will be rolling through Ames between 1 and 2. Is tracking towards the southern end of the severe risk area which puts central Iowa more in the target. Hoping it loses quite a bit of steam by then.
