I'm at somewhere above 6" of rain so far, and counting. If it doesn't let up by this time tomorrow ........ maybe. 🤣🤣🤣
Wow, too much, hope the fields and crops are okay.
I ended up with 12.6", Craig. Roads and culverts re blown out all over Burke County and neighboring counties towards the coast. It was a major disaster for roads. I think our crops fared okay. The corn wasn't quite matured and had green left in it, and the winds weren't bad at all. The peanuts are a low growing crop, so no falling over or anything like that. The rain will benefit them, as long as it dries out enough that we can get equipment back in the fields to keep them sprayed for disease prevention.
I had an older black employee, Eddie Lee, who worked for my Grandaddy on the farm and then for me, and he loved to say ........... "Cap'n, hit's so wet it would bog a housecat wid shingles on it's feet." Yes it is, Eddie Lee.
Thanks for asking, Craig.
