Last week was quite a week. We woke to snow on Monday. It mostly melted. It snowed again on Tuesday morning. Then it began to rain on Tuesday and someone forgot to turn off the faucet. It rained steadily through to Friday and the standing water above is one of the results. There were small lakes everywhere, including the usually dry pasture above.
We’ve had a lot of rain this year and you can see where water tables are high. Though rainfall tapered off by the weekend it’s taking time for water to seep back into the ground. Until then… welcome to lake country.
Where is Noah when you need him? 😉
I just heard some stories of flooding on the news this morning. A fellow blogger in New Zealand is having the opposite problem. They’ve had no rain and the water tables are extremely low.
We have had a lot more rain than usual and less snow which seems to melt away in a few days. It has been a weird winter everywhere it seems.
Quite a sight to see.
Here we’re in a cold spell for a few days.
