I have read in the summer you can loose as much as 1/4 inch of surface water a day! It gets pretty hot here though. I have easily lost 20 inches as a matter of fact I am about at that point right now still. Suppose to get some more rain this Friday and Saturday so hopfully that will help.

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!

IIRC, when humidity is very high and the water is slightly warmer or the least evap occurs when two moist air masses with a wide temp differential collide directly over your BOW and the evaporation process reverses dramatically. Like this
