Darren has made a post this afternoon about the field and indicated that it's too wet to mow for a while.
I had a look at the field at about 4:30pm today and it's recovering pretty quickly from the weekend drenching - but there's a long way to go. All the usual dips in the main runway are holding water and it's way too wet to be useable. The cross-strip is pretty good and only has one pool, in it's usual place near where Con's burning F-18 went in. Much of the cross-strip would be serviceable, except where it overlaps the main runway.
Things should be better in a few more days, given that the forecast doesn't look too bad.
