We have had only one significant rainfall event since December 29, and it was almost six weeks ago. I have kept the pond high by pumping from our little creek, but now the creek has almost no flow. We are in an "abnormally dry" area here according to the US Drought Monitor. Hope it breaks soon. Every time we have had rain in this area lately it splits and goes around, or just misses on one side.
John,
We had 16" of rain in Houston since midnight last night.....be glad to send you some. Not sure how much we had at the farm, but with the large watershed it doesn't take much for give the siphon a workout. I think Pat W. up at Oakwood said he had 5" last night....no drought in SE Texas for sure...
