Missed us by 45 miles. The farm got a sprinkle. My water well is getting one heck of a workout getting the grass green and healthy again before it goes into the winter dormancy at the house.
I've been mowing the grass above the lateral lines only since July lol. So dry. We're at the point where it's been dry so long, it just starts that continued progression of where it just doesn't rain for months now.
I'm dragging 300' of 3/4" hose around the property as far as it will reach to get it growing again.
I took out the pool this spring with a rented track hoe and concrete breaker. The dirt we brought in has an amazing growth of bermuda right in the outline of the pool that even choked out some johnson grass it's so thick. Our well water is very alkaline so that gives me a clue I may need to add some acid to the surrounding soil to bring the PH back into more normal levels.
The animals love the new grass!
Rain in the forecast....
A lot of rain if the forecast is true. 6.5" in Ponca and over 8" in Tulsa.
That will make a mess. Feast or famine.
If it comes over three days it may not be bad, but if it's all at once, It will certainly be a mess.
Kaw lake has been 3' low for most of the summer. It needs water.
It appears that the rain will be statewide. OKC looks like it could get 2.2 - 2.5" and that will get the food plots up.
OKC's rain forecast has been updated to around 4+ inches of rain over several days. Let's all pray that this is close to being accurate. SE OKla may hit 6".
