Potatoes are easy to grow in Va. I have been doing it for decades. Put seed potatoes in ground about May 1 and dig early August after vines have died down. They need lots of rain or watering when blooming. I have dug a big bushel in the past week and probably have another bushel to go.

.04" from that flood watch!!!!! It's always less than .10"..............................

STERLING and NOAA are a complete Joke................ Their government subsidy is a complete fleecing of America as Brokaw used to say.........

Happy for you................. I have had .40" in the past week and nothing in the past 24 hours.

.40" in the past week here.

I received .25" while Buffalo Gap received 3.14"!! and Churchville 1.76".....

If we're still dry in September it will only get worse without tropical contribution. Historically, September and October are very dry without tropical contribution because the thunderstorm season is over...........................

Its been raining off and on since 8 am here and I have all of .04"

Light rain begins with 70 degrees. The GFS gives me .08" during the next 24 hrs. and the ECMWF gives .26"................ .43" so far for the first 20 days of July. Normal would have been 2.80".

Last year April /May and August thru October were very dry. June and July were wet at my place. This year I have received .43" the first 18 days of July. Last year I received 4.64" the first 18 days of July! During the past week, southern portions of Augusta have received 1.00 - 2.00" of rain. I have received .09". Currently, we are suffering an extreme agricultural drought. Hydrologically, we were worse last fall.

The updated Drought Monitor places the 81 corridor from Staunton to Winchester in Extreme Drought

I have received a pitiful .04" as most of the energy translated south of I-64.
