Things are getting worse here. On our farm, we've had one rain of 2/10 inch in the past 30 days. Many of those days in the 90s.

Thanks bowyer,

I noticed that. 

Bowyer is in Westcentral IL.

Rains the last week below

In late May, the lawn was turning yellow after weeks of saturated soil. Turning brown now from lack of water.
