Nice. Two months rain and we're almost back, maybe to July 1, 07 levels.

And you call it over. A non event.

"these weather patterns have a way of balancing things out over time"

Yeah. Everything balances. And in the long run, we're all...

We in US agri need everything to be just right from now on.

We must have near record crops every year.

Whereas we only need one more drought year to bring us to our knees.

And Atlanta destroyed it's watershed to add insult to injury.

This year is starting out almost exactly like last year. If it continues, rainfall will be good till around April, then it will fall off a cliff.

Lets see what the rainfall looks like in early summer. If it doesn't continue to follow last years' pattern, and the SE gets some tropical moisture during hurricane season, then I'll be more optimistic.

I think that prediction was for next summer, and the summers to come. We'll see after La Nina goes away next year, but you must admit that the American Way of Life is creating water problems all over the continent, problems which impact tar sands production, ethanol production, the cooling of nuclear reactors, and of course hydroelectric power. Americans have to panic before they change.

Funny about that. Looking at the NCDC site Georgia has a total of 15" of rain this winter (Dec-Jan). it doesn't seem like much of a drought.
