We have yet to see problems like what you are seeing in your area.For 7 weeks now our weather has been rain,snow,freezen rain,sleet,winds 30 to 60,T-storms and just plain old nasty storms.Last night we had T-storms with freezen rain,no major ice build up but flooding everywhere.

I think what you are seeing now is a start of a water shortage in alot of areas in the days to come.Alot of land has been leveled and drainage of water in most areas is fast,it hasn't time to soak back into the ground.

My area is rated number one in rice growing which takes alot of water to grow rice.Its flooded around in april and until around the last of september before the flood is dropped off the crop.That takes alot of water,the sun can lower the flood by 2 to 4 inches aday so the wells run mosty day and night.

I think they will find out the drainage system they have now days in most area's has cost them dearly in water problems.I also think you will see them redo the drainage systems where as to let the water stay in the area's longer as to not reroute for a fast runoff.

When In Doubt Think It Out
