nice link! just how is drought levels determined there? i noticed it
said local conditions vary. locally, not only are the crops & pastures
suffering, but the wells, rivers, streams, etc. are drying up.
currently, our area is down by nearly 17 inches in the rain-fall
department. while i know it could all be just talk, the area elders
are all saying it is the worst they've seen in years.
