It began calling at 5 o'clock in the afternoon and for several hours continued in a steady downpour. Toward midnight it ceased and the following day was clear. The rain brought the total for the season to 8.80, to date, last year 10.28, although the precipitation is below normal, crops still look well. Hay crops are assured, and with several rains to follow, a good grain yield will be harvested.
