FORECAST: Heavier rain arrives in Green Country by Wednesday night and Thursday [View all]

Thank goodness! I'm worried about the farmers in this part of the country, and to make it even worse, so many houses are suffering structural damage due to the clay soils in the area contracting. This type of damage isn't usually covered by homeowner insurance policies. I bought a new house last summer, and virtually everything I looked at had structural issues, regardless of the age of the house or its construction.

I read that we need at least 9-10 inches of rain to end the drought. If we don't get caught up before summer, I worry what things will be like later in 2013.
