Down here in central Texas it is extremely dry as well. We haven't been getting the rain that the northern part of the state has been having. This spring has also been very windy and that dries out the land even more. Most of the crops have already been ruined. And it's hot, hot, hot! As of yesterday, 13 out of 20 days in June have seen 100 degrees or more. My dad is 90 and he said he doesn't remember it ever being this hot in June before.
