As people who care for land and want to protect our families and neighbors, rain can be an emotional topic. When you really need rain and you get it, the relief is immeasurable. Pollen is washed away, air is cleared, and grass and flowers green and bloom. When you get too much rain at the wrong time, it can feel like doom. Mud bogs down machines, topsoil is washed away, and your feet are soggy all day.
