Hope everybody is weathering the storms as near as I can tell, yesterday 7 tornados in central southern parts, couple a few miles from my location. Mansfield 3 inches, Cat, The Same, Monroe and Lemon 3 plus inches so far. More to come next 6-7 days. More flooding and high water. Watch out for these heavy lightning storms and stay safe.
Its rough, but I won't complain too much with the mild temps. Could be 95 right now. Just rain down south, did get ran off my saugeye lake yesterday by tornado sirens .

Us northern Indiana folks been getting way too much rain and weather events as well. But, I would have to
say that I have had awesome times fishing in the rain this year.
Going to be another mud fest after next week, Raccoon finally was down to 4.4 ft above summer pool now it will head back up. Definitely looking forward to the fall unless the rain starts then and wont stop:(
Gettin ready for round 2 right now. Got to love the weather especially if your a duck! :Rofl
changed forecast here from 80 percent chance of storms tonight to 40 percent and went from 60 percent tomorrow to 40 during day.
I dont think they really know what its gonna do.. we ended up with 2.75-3.0 inches.
Monroe back up over 11’ after being lowered to around 8’. Pine Grove will be over the road again.

Patoka needs 3/4 ft and at flood stage, all it needs is a couple of ft rise to set a new record. East Fork of the White River at Williams is set to rise to 14 ft by Friday and that is 6ft over flood stage and it will rise more than that with more rain forcast. All the farmers near will be flooded out. This is ugly.
Raccoon is headed up again as is Cataract, hating this frigging weather thundering here right now heavy rain in a hour or so:(
Heavy rains now again, been raining over a hour now, all last week local farmers hammered fields in the bottoms around all the hill country near East Fork of the White, now all flooded. One way in and out to my house due to heavy flooding to Bedford only. Can’t go west towards Shoals or Logoottee due to roads all flooded. I can launch my boat at bottom of the wooded hill I live on off the county road. :Rofl
this has gotta be one of the wettest beginnings to summer we've ever had, been awhile since I remember it raining this long during the spring.

Brutal year for farmers. I see fields that havent been planted all over. My family has a farm in northern IN and they had a small window in May where they were lucky enough to get seed in. But I dont think southern IN is as lucky.
1.2 inches again, just dumped the rain gauge. All fields flooded for miles here. Seymour had so far at least 8 inches. Bloomington over 6. Washington 5 plus and maybe no rain this Friday, but they are now predicting rain every day thru July 2. Hope they are wrong on the predictions.
Here is one I have never heard happen before due to heavy rains. Brown Co State Park Closed due to water unusable.

great year to be a mosquito:)
Mosquitos, knats, and horse flys are worse so far this year due to rains as I live in 40 acres of wooded hills that butts up to more than 3500 acres more in this section without a road thru it and several low land wetlands surrounding the hills. I put up this bugnet room every spring held up with 3/4 pvc and not glued together for storage and size is 12’ x 20’ on deck with a 10’ x 12’ waterproof silnylon tarp that I used for backpacking. Me and the wife can grill, sit, and watch it rain and stay dry without getting eaten alive by the bugs and the 2 house dogs love it as well. So far it’s weathered 45-50 mph gusting wind and if it does get blown apart, just put it all back up. Just had Deer blow at me taking these pics as it’s thundering and getting ready to pour for the 4th time today again. Attachment 346934 Attachment 346935

I have 10k generator on front porch and 2 k generator in 3 car pole barn style garage for freezer as we have lost power now 3 times so far plus 30 gal of gas on standby. This crap is supposed to last another 10-15 days.???? Hope they are wrong.
a day WITH sunshine would be like a day WITHOUT rain, it ain't happening !!:dono:banghead:mad:
sun is shining here right at this moment but 90 percent chance of rain tomorrow with 1.7 in predicted for here..
Cevans where did you get the bug netting, might make one of those for my deck.
Go to amazon.com and type in garden bug netting and it can be bought in 10’ by different lengths. I use 3/4 pvc water pipe from Lowe’s, the White, not the yellow as it’s cheaper and buy all the attachments there. To attach the netting 3/4 clamps can be had at amazon also.

https://www.amazon.com/FORMUFIT-F034...y&sr=8-2-fkmr0
you won’t find these at Lowe’s or the four ways either.
I staple and use 1 x 2’s screwed to deck to hold it tight and down to sides of deck. Nothing is glued so as it can come down before it snows and easy to store. I have used same netting now 5 yrs.
Thank you sir for the info..
Weather sucks so I went fishing in the rain. Another front was rolling in and I had a dozen minnows left from Sat. so caught a few for the lunch bucket in a down pour. Came from a swelling creek. Front had them aggressive toward the minnows.Attachment 346982Attachment 346983Attachment 346984

Whether it's weather or anything else I love coming here when fishing is not an option.
It hasn't been for most of us. Being here is kind of like sitting around the camp fire sharing stories.
We will survive!
Just got hammered by high estimated 60 mph winds, half inch of rain in less than ten minutes. I AM getting tired of picking up limbs everyday out of the yard. Still raining but the front is on its way East south East. Had a small amount of pea sized hail with this front. Over 5 in of rain past 7 days.
Patoka Lake is going over the spill way soon. It's been a long time since that happened.
front just went thru Louisville winds not quite that bad but still strong and a lot of rain in a short time
