The Pond I normally MOW 9th May 2015 ~ Oklahoma drowning
That picture is the Pond I normally MOW.
Now.. in the centre .. it is at least 10 feet deep . The pond will eventually be dry again.
The craters and underflow rip outs that are going on right now with this flooding on my land, cant be seen . The fabric of the land wont repair itself where the flood has ripped out land.
There is undermining everywhere where underflows are that didnt exist , ripped the land out.,, alot of damage on the South boundary. We also have quicksand in places.
It very hard to describe what is happening here. Just imagine a tidal wave you cant see cept maybe the top foot of it.. the rest is underground. Imagine how it takes the land away.
All the 30 year records are a bust.. they are talking about once in 100 years right now.
We are on sandstone... and have had so many years of extreme drought. In many ways.. we are lucky as our Home is dry and safe... but this... just rips my heart out ... all the work I have put into this place. Right now.. I cant even let my dogs play in the Pond because of the holes in the land.
Mother Nature isnt happy. The irony is some parts of the State are still in deep drought.
There is more severe weather to come this next week too
EXPLORED !

Joking aside, this is an excellent photo and a sad tale, Pam.
Weather records seem to broken every year nowadays: It can't all be down to 'global warming'.
Pam J club has replied to PolyrusYes... this is mowed normally... bone dry.
Changing weather patterns are climate change.. add ancient cycles too.. and this is the New World Climate....and it will get worse before it stabilises.

Shuttering Yukon has replied to Pam J clubLovely image here Well done Pam Regards Tess.
Pam J club has replied to Treasa Ui CionaodhaAfter so many years of drought the land cant take deluges . Here in this area.. about 9 years of deep drought.. and this where I am is sandstone ridges.. and sand rivers.
Now... this rain extreme....Irony is.. some parts of the state havent had a drop... and we will probably be on Burn Bans by August in 110F !
Anyway, your photo is really beautiful !

Pam J club has replied to Christiane ♥.•*¨`*•✿Pam J club has replied to tiabunna clubWouldnt it be nice to have some kind of middle route !!
.. it is one of those 'why can't Nature share', but we know that doesn't happen
Pam J club has replied to Peggy C clubIts all pretty worrying right now.
Pam J club has replied to FizgigThe pond is now 10 feet deep.. the water has nowhere to go.
After nine years of drought weaken the land...the deluges have ripped it apart. I have lost alot including major trees. Just thankful the house is ok. Have months of repair work on the land.
