I wound up with a little over 4 inches in the last 24 hours in D/FW. More is coming and, to us, it is absolutely useless because the ground can't take anymore. My ponds have overflowed for the first time in 8 years.
The Fort Worth Star Telegram reports that this is the 3rd wettest June on record. We have had, officially, 9.07 inches at D/FW Airport. Lots of places have had more. Several of the years during the 8 year drought, we didn't get over 10 inches in a year. The year before last, I lost 90% of the fish in a one acre pond and had to restock.
Sure wish I could send some of this stuff elsewhere to you guys. We have a very deep appreciation of your drought problems.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
