In all my life of farming and fixing fence, I’ve never seen or even heard of what happened today. Got home and went out to start putting the fencing on the new post we’d dug in over the weekend.
Remember me saying the ground water table was 12-18 inches down, it’s now just 6-8 inches and all those 10 ft, 8 inch diameter posts we’d put in, they’ve all been pushed upwards at least a foot and a few out of the ground completely. I’m guessing hydraulic pressures from the abnormally high ground water. It’s also done it on some of our older fence posts that have been in the ground for years.
