No rain in Udon

Every where around Udon I see tremendous storms at night.  I can see lightning and clouds to the east, south and north. But here in Udon there is little rain.  This is affecting the rice planting.  Below you can see what the fields should look like.  But these fields are getting water from a lake that is being drained above them.

This is what is happening in most fields around here now.  You can see that there is no water and the rice plants are turning yellow and dieing.  The kelly green field is young rice plants waiting to be planted in the paddies.
