Isaac spilling his guts will help the (second crop) wheat, but, the corn is beyond fucked.

ETA: Rained bukkits here this afternoon, really. Harder than I've seen it rain in a long time.

Yup, rain. Creek jumped from 2.5 ft to 9 ft, and 30 cu-ft/sec to 3000 cu-ft/sec.

Crap for rain. Where was our 4-6 inches? All it was was humid humid humid and overcast. I have to say I'm so sick of the sun, too, because when everyone gets all excited about the sun being out I'm dying of perimenopausal heatstroke.

It's just been too long, too dry a summer.

Cool charts. Is that your own gauge, or are you tied into some government website?

It's one of thousands of government (USGS) real-time measuring stations around the country, except this one is practically in my back yard. This one has been recording since August of 1931, but wasn't online then.

Why get off my ass and look out the window, when I can just bring it up on my monitor.

You don't have a closed circuit tv camera set up? You'd never have to move!

If that creek gets much higher, you won't need to move, because it'll be around your ankles!
