    Default Way too much rain!!

    I've always heard that you need rain in June if you want to make corn. But three straight days of torrential afternoon / evening downpours - yikes!! Probably lose a bunch of the duck field corn if we can't get our drainage pump operational tomorrow!

    I haven't checked the gauge but like ABB said, way too much. At least I won't have to drag my boat across any sandbars for a while hopefully. Steady chance to rain for the next couple of days.

    Rain IS a good thing.

    The amount we've been getting in Sumter is ridiculous, but my lawn is greener this year than its ever been!

    Send some to Aiken. It is DRY around here.
    If it ain\'t accurate at long distance, then the fact that it is flat shooting is meaningless.
