the big snow dumps we saw down here in early 2000s caused a shite load of damage......and the big winds 3-4 years ago did the same,irrigators have to be moved till parralel to wind,tied down to anything the farmers can find or drive to them.... the 2nd time we got huge winds the power went out before they got around... the flow on effect was parched pastures and poor income for rest of season.... kind of understandable they push panic button...still a pain in arse all the same.
