Nah dawg it ain't #GOOD. I was just now able to till my garden today and I'm not near any of the flooded areas over here in western KY. Everything has been super saturated and with the dams (Kentucky and Barkley) having their spill gates still open there isn't going to be much reprieve for people living in the downstream river bottoms or those depending on lakes to lower enough for the upstream tributaries to drain enough.

I have a feeling most farmers around here will be making insurance claims this year which will raise rates for everyone else and in turn raise food prices.

I guess the next time California catches fire, you'll know where all the water is

And next time Kentucky needs roads, they can find their own f*cking money.
