can't imagine how dry it must be there. In this part of NE IN we had a very wet spring, about 14 inches of rain in May alone, most crops did not get planted until 1st or second week of June. Then rain stopped we got trapped in your bubble for awhile, hottest driest July here on record, although still 10 to 15 degrees less hot than TX. And there was corn rolling up and looking very bad.Had to go down 15 or more inches to find moisture. Imagine starting out with no rain, and all the 100 plus days TX and OK have had. Only thing missing is dust storms of the 30's. I feel for you people, wish we could help. But it is out of our hands. But as you say the real effects for the rest are yet to come. No hay or grain to feed ,no water means no livestock and you can't just got to Wally World and replace them whenever you feel like it, it could take years to get the herd sizes back up. And all you people suffering now have every right to tell em so what just live with it! Hope things improve for you SOON!
