Rain continues to saturate the Partched Blue Hill area.

A welcome soaking cold rain is falling on the drought plagued  Blue Hill area at this time.  Reports are in from as far south as Cowles and Guide Rock and as far North as Hastings that a steady rain is falling over the entire area.  The dust will certainly be settled by the time this one stops.
 Rural gravel and dirt roads are  reported to be very muddy and slick. So if you must travel those roads take the required precautions. 
Record minimum high temperature have been set for April 22nd. The high temperature has only reached 43 degrees so far today.  No sun is out and there appears to be no chance of it warming beyond the temperature already reached.
 This breaks the record for the minimum high temperature for April 22nd. The previous record was 44 degrees last set in 1944. Today's high temperature was 22 degrees colder than the normal high of 65 degrees.
