It looks like Cincinnati is going to come up just shy of the all time record rain fall in a month. We currently stand at 13.51" for the month with the record for any month at 13.68" set back in January 1937. Though I've hated the amount of rain we've had, to come this close to the record and not break it will be disappointing. There doesn't seem to be any rain in the forecast today or tomorrow, the last day of the month. I think most folks in the Midwest have seen enough rain for a while, so hopefully we dry out some over the upcoming weeks.
Edit (5/1/11) - We did come up just short, the final number for the month was 13.52". Funny thing though, it is raining today.
The hops plants are still progressing, but slowly. The ground is just so damp and we have had only 3 days of sun the entire month. We should see some sun over the next few days which should start to dry out the ground and perk some growth.
I'll plan to put some updated pictures later in the week after they perk up in the sun.
