Rain Makers to Aid Connecticut Growers
Connecticut growers appealed to Acting Governor Edward Nyalen to declare a drought emergency as about 60 farmers gathered in Ellington to back an artificial rain making project. Rain makers are due to arrive tomorrow, backed by a Lloyd's of London policy approval, with a farm relief emphasis statewide. A violent wind and hail storm lashed Somers overnight, damaging hundreds of acres of broadleaf tobacco, toppled a silo, leveled outbuildings, and blew off a chimney, though a small group of thirty farms benefited from the rain. Last July was the hottest on record in Central Connecticut with average highs around 87.7 degrees and 14 days above 90, but August began cooler due to a cold front.
