After a dry start to 2025, we finally
started getting rain in the past month. Unfortunately, it came
at the same time when farmers across the state are working to get
spring forages off and fall crops planted. Before the rain we got this
week, the mid-state got nearly four inches in the past month, which
helped close our deficit in the region from nearly 7 inches to just
above 3 inches. There is no doubt that we needed the rain. It’s just
unfortunate that we had to get it all in the months of April and May
