Illabo producer David Carter said farmers were anxiously keeping their eyes on the rain gauge in the hopes of drier days ahead.

"It's getting to the stage where some people are rejoicing that they're only getting 10mm instead of 20mm," Mr Carter said.

"It's not great for the blokes who want to put hay in the ground because each time it rains it starts to spoil, so the quality of the hay won't be as good as if it hadn't rained."

Mr Carter said his own canola crops had taken a beating due to high speed winds that had given the fields a "bad hair day".

However, Mr Carter said the current situation was still preferable to the long stretch of drought.

"The situation changes and you've got to adapt and deal with it. We can't do much about it, we just have to grin and bear it and go with the flow," he said.

"If it stops raining now for a couple of months we're home and hosed, but if it keeps on raining it just makes the challenge a bit more greater, that's all."

Weatherzone meteorologist Joel Piddard said October had been an especially wet month for Wagga, which had received about 25mm more than the monthly average.

Mr Piddard said more rains were on the way over the weekend, but that conditions would improve heading into the next week.

"We will get some showers coming through on Saturday, one to five millimetres and maybe up to ten, but then it will clear up on Sunday," Mr Piddard said.

"It looks like it will be a lot drier next week. We might see some light rain on Wednesday and Friday, but it looks like it'll be a lot drier, sunnier, and warmer."
