We could sure use a rain.
Although it seems very dry, we are not too far off from where our precipitation normally is this time of year. The difference was that we received it all in a short period of time and have not seem much rain since then in most areas.
For the time period of May 1-May 31, Extension rainfall reporters recorded an average of 3.27 inches of rain in Hardin County.
Last year, the average rainfall for the same time period was 3.70 inches. Rainfall for May 1-May 31, 2016 is 0.62 inches less than the ten year average rainfall during the same dates.
