NE Oklahoma is 10-20 inches ahead of average rainfalls for the month right now. Its so squishy here that tomato plants are wilting and threatening to be lost to the wetness.

We actually considered digging a pond in the west pasture due to being able to dig down two feet and have the hole fill with water within minutes.

We had a huge ice (ie more rain) in January w/ no electric for 10 days at my house.

Had another freeze the first week in April that killed the first garden

Have heard it said last year was the complete opposite extreme and I think THAT is the remarkable thing....the extremes.

Id have agreed with this article LAST YEAR and we MAY have more draught later this summer, but Im not sure what they are basing this line of thinking on right now. It just aint so!
