Anyone will take moisture right now across the state. Every little bit helps. The last two afternoons we have seen some significant cloud cover and recieved a little rainfall.
Tuesday .04" and Wednesday .05" fell on the property. This is about 40% of what we would put out through the irrigation system on a nightly basis.
The largest benefit of these events is that the moisture cools down the surface and haults wilting. The cloud cover increases humidity and slows evaporation rates.
Anything over .15" at once would significantly help us catch up with dry areas. Slow soaking rainfalls near a half inch or greater would allow us to pause our storage water for a day or two.
