Sounds like the rain is needed elsewhere in the state as well, it has been dry, which is a change from the last several years of too much rain, we've been getting rain about once a week to 2 weeks it seems. Unfortunately, and very sad to learn of this news, just north of here a 17 year old was struck and killed by lightning, along the river, near the tie down piers. I looked around yesterday, quite a few trees & limbs damgaged, chainsaw will get a workout this week. The fields we have that have been let overgrown had young birch trees in them, a young forest, damage was worse close to the bottom of the valley, many bent over, the woods look like a real mess now, top of the ridge, about 650 feet above sea level, a few limbs is all, I thought that being the high ground would have been where the most damage was. Apparently this was the hardest hit area, we're all due sometime, and I guess that is one way to find all the weak limbs, funny how all the dead elms, are still standing with nothing fallen below.
