It doesn’t “look” like it’s going to rain tonight. My yard is looking like hay and the ground is cracked. I’m not watering it anymore!

I mean at this point a half inch the next week would obviously be better than nothing. 

From FFC for 3 systems including today’s:

7 DAY RAINFALL AMOUNTS ARE 
FORECAST TO BE BETWEEN 1.5-2.25" NORTH OF I-85, WITH PROGRESSIVELY 
DIMINISHING AMOUNTS TO THE SOUTH AND EAST, DOWN TO ABOUT 0.5" IN 
EAST-CENTRAL GEORGIA. LOCALLY HIGHER TOTALS WILL BE POSSIBLE WHERE 
STRONGER STORMS OCCUR. INCREASING SURFACE PRESSURE AND DRIER AIR 
WILL SET UP OVER THE SOUTHEAST ON THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY

We got a big fat zilch! Zero point zero today. I bet we get absolutely nothing the next week too. I literally watch the radar, and 20 miles to my west the rain just disappears. I'm so done with this crap. We literally have had maybe 2 Inches of rain the last 4 months. This is insane. Oak trees are looking bad. Yellow leaves, and staring to drop leaves
