US Drought Map 10-09-2012

Still not looking good across most of the country and really bad for duck production.
Lets hope we get a ton of snow on the PPR this winter.

Very interesting, Carl. Actually it is alarming especially when you think of all those dependent upon agriculture. As a duck hunter this is of major concern. Hopefully this pattern will not continue and that we will have a good snow pack this year.

I can sure vouch for Oklahoma's drought conditions. If we don't get some significant rains, I may have to resort to setting out blue tarps and setting decoys on the the tarps....LOL

I Hope I Hope I hope this is correct.

Rob if your map holds true then maybe all the ducks will concentrate in our neck of the woods. But golly that is a mighty large percentage of our country that is going to be hurting!

Boy if we are in a moderate drought I sure dont ever want to see a sever drought. Most of small potholes of water are bone dry, as in mud cracks the whole way. Anything spring fed is ok but still low. Even The big pond has areas that are a few hundred yards of sand if the wind is blowing right.
