RE: Donna and tornadoes/OKLA storms

I agree!!!  West and Middle Tennessee have received plenty of rain but we
are moving into deficits as each month passes...now 3.5 inches short.  I
have decided not to plant much this year because of the heat and drought. 
As my arm keeps improving, I have been getting more and more prunning
done...It is amazing how quickly trees and shrubs can take over.  Please
send some of that heavy rain towards East Tennessee.  I am concerned about
those in the continuing storm areas everytime I see the weather news.
