Anybody else in the Midwestern still feel like we're in a drought?

Here in Central MN we are in a horrid drought. All the corn crops came in late, grew fast, and then dropped and dried up sooner than usual. I don't even remember the last time we had a good rain....maybe the beginning of July? I have an in-ground sprinkler system so my veggies have done okay but not even close to normal. Temps keep flip flopping by the week between mid 60s and high 90s- everything is getting confused. I had to buy 3 bushels of tomatoes just to get my canning done for the winter and I still feel like I am behind. Beans did fantastic though- I have done 40 quarts and 70 pints. Now I am just blanching and freezing them whole. I really hope next year is better because I am so saddened by my garden. I hate even looking at it.

Looks almost exactly like our forces. It just reached 100 on my car thermometer. Weather station says it was NOLT 97. No rain in the foreseeable future. UGH
