I live in north central Tennessee, just south of the Kentucky border. The drought here is the worst I've ever seen, and they are saying on the news that it is the worst drought in 170 years. (Did they track this stuff 170 years ago?)

I have two ponds on my property and both are bone dry and have been for a while. I drive past several ponds on the way to and from work and all but 2 are completely dry. We have a little creek behind our house and it's been dry for 2 months. (Built the house 6 years ago, and it's never been dry before this year) It's really bad here. We have gotten rain 3 times in the last week, but it's been light. There hasn't been a runoff producing rain in several months. My parents have a bunch of ponds on their farm in Kentucky a little north of here, and they have gotten a lot more rain than we have.
