Really depends where you are South of 80 I would generalize as all good 80 to 30 good 30 to 20 pretty good. 20 N to the Mn border ok but the NW corner is drier than they would like. All crops look fine that I've heard about it's the subsoil moisture people are worried about.
This is a really good meme nice job of finding it. Like the attention to detail it has.
I saw tree branches down all over Middleton and Waunakee.
Pheasant Branch trail is pretty messy and lots of people making brush piles.
Lost power tonight. Off about 6.
I have two estimates for a whole house generator. Waiting on the third due this week.
This was the second multi-hour outage in the last two weeks.
We got 2" on Sunday/Monday. Sump pump didn't run. Got almost another 2" today and THEN the power went out. I do have a battery back up, I could hear it running, but figured it wouldn't last all night.
My neighbor HAS his generator installed so I asked if I could plug into his outside receptacle to power mine for the overnight.
About 8:30 I decided to go for it before it got dark and the next storm came through. Plugged it in and the pump started. Then a few seconds later I hear the fan in the HVAC system kick on.
Yup, the power came on right then, so my timing was perfect. Back on at 8:41 according to MidAmerican.
