any rain

[DJK Frank 16]

Dang Sam those crops look rough. Hoping for some rain down there for you guys.

We got a little rain but up here but not near what you would expect in storms systems like we had.

 

[Boone]

I hope you (and the rest of us who need it) get rain soon. That corn looks bad with all the ends curled. We too missed out on the rain Friday adn Yesterday in eastern summit county.

[bowhunter1023]

It is pouring here and has for 20 minutes. Despite the heat, things are going well in terms of rain around here the last week...

Sam, we spent the day up in Grove City and it poured up there.... How'd you fare???? Did you get any too make a differance?????

 

[Ohiosam]

Maybe 2 or 3 hundredths. Up along 165 though it was more like a tenth and a half. But another line is coming across Erie.

 

[CJD3]

I'm getting rain now.Coming down a little hard.

 

["J"]

It rained for three hours up there where we were at.... hard at first than just steady after that.....

 

[Ohiosam]

Well we finally got a decent rain. 1.2 inches that came slow enough that little ran off.

Had a tornado warning right over J's house but didn't hear of any damage.

Good too hear you finally got some usable rain Sam.... We got a lot of wind and thunder but no damage too speak of never lost power and haven't heard of any damage too anyone close by..... Dodged another one I guess.... We've been pretty lucky compared too our brothers down south and too the west of us.....

 

[bowhunter1023]

It rained a bit last night, and is raining again here. Things are much better in that department here of late...

 

[Beentown]

Poured this morning for a bit. Hopefully I can mow soon but it has been TOO dry. I need to let it go so it isn't so crunchy.

 

[steveOh]

no rain here on the Greene/Montgomery Co line!!!

 

[finelyshedded]

No substantial precip since the 6/10th we got this past weekend. We got 1/10 the two weeks before that. Pretty dry here in the SW still.
