I know we have not had a lot of rain in Montana this spring though things are not critical because of 50" plus of early winter snow that melted into unfrozen ground. My nephew in eastern North Dakota reports they are in the field months earlier than normal--they were too wet to harvest a share of their crop last fall. Now I hear a beekeeper friend in Pennsylvania saying he is hearing of an unprecedented drought over the country. Are we doomed AGAIN or is this just normal weather variability?
