Weather

Rain started again here in Dodge. Still 37 degrees. I use the National Weather site a lot and click on Dodge City radar, the click on Rainfall: Storm total. When I do it looks like much of the area picked up by the Dodge City radar is in the 1.5 inch range with heavy spots up to four inches. Heaviest areas from Meade and Ashland on the southern border northeast to Great Bend.
 
Could be a slip slide season

Beginning to look like a statewide soaker. Except maybe for extreme NW Kansas. Pity is this is probably no short term inconvience since the roads may stay nasty for a good long while.
 
Hope you guys don't get too rained out with the roads this weekend but there's a part of me that says when I get to Wakeeney for a week on Monday, the birds might be a little surprised to see me and the brittany running though virgin fields :D
 
Slickrox, that sounds like sensational idea! I suspect that even with good weather there would be quite a few of the dazed and confused. Have to wait till much later for the sadder but wiser bird, even then the first snow makes them all virgins again, for a day!
 
Didn't see any pheasants out in the rain, but did see a couple nice sized flocks of turkeys(animal kind) running around in the rain. Sure wish we had a fall turkey season here.
 
Turkeys

My 13 year old twin girls are determined to shoot a pointed turkey this year, only legal as far as I know in the fall, in Kansas and Nebraska. had 2 pointed and flushed straight away last year, had no idea it was legal, ( Stodgy old Missouri absolutely not), didn't buy them permits. This year armed, lisenced, dangerous, and determined. I have had numerous pointed turkey's over the years, all lived to gobble another day. time will tell. In eastern ks. might be more turkeys than pheasants or quail.
