Not really weather related, other than the rain Tuesday halted the repairs. On Monday, a pipe burst five houses down from us. The street gave way and the vehicle dropped down into the hole. Water was shut off around 2pm, back on around 230am. Credit to the CR Water people for working until the 12 inch pipe was repaired. I spoke with one guy and he couldn't believe a 12 inch pipe was there. He said usually no more than six.

We know it never works out that way.

No. But there seem to be a lot of teachers these days that would be willing.

Any bad hail in the last 12-24 hours other than West Bend and Whittemore? Some crops are really bad over there. West of Algona.

Was at a baseball game in fort dodge last night. 3 hours of delays, only had 3 outs left. If it would have started 5 minutes sooner we probably would have been done before the delays. No hail there but was some heavy rain.

Not sure where it started or ended but my crop tour took me from a couple miles south Eagle Grove in line to 5 miles west of Blairsburg. Lots of hailed on crops. South of EG was the worst. Corn was ready to tassel is now less than 2ft tall. One customer of mine said golf ball size hail fell for almost 15 minutes there.

Mine don't look like that. I ate one and now I'm being chased by a purple elephant.
