Riding across OK and AR and all the water.

[..]

So much water in the lakes and rivers.

Looking at the radar right now Sunday night and the rain still keeps coming. I was lucky to not get soaked Friday and Saturday

Good luck to all living in the flood areas.

On the way out there I saw those 100 yard long field irrigators half sunk in fields full of water...

On the way back we used i-40 in Arkansas and I saw signs about how
part of 64 was closed.

I got no rain to speak of the whole time  ...

It appears that it is going to get worse over the next couple of weeks.  I wish all the very best.  That much flooding is going to be really hard on the farmers.

Still bloody raining. Radar shows half of AR is covered with thunderstorms.

First it was global warming.

Then it was climate change.

Soon it will be global raining. 

Any port in a storm.


My brother cannot mow either of his grass runways in MI (they are now over waist high wheat fields)  His big tractors would rut and ruin the runways.  He says no farmers there have even been able to plant yet.

A few hours later and now it's the whole state with more moving in from OK.

Those of us who rode across the flatlands from Taos were very lucky to stay dry.

Poor sods are going to really suffer.

I did "hammer-on across the endless flats into the wind" numerous times... I think
I'm glad I didn't do "hammer-on across the endless flats into the wind in a pouring rain"...
