Received only .01" precip Aug 3-10. Didn't even settle the dust. Most grass has gone dormant. Afraid my new lawn, which was looking good a month ago, is dead. Surface water sources are quickly drying up. Numerous wildfires in area, but not much lightening this past week,. Maybe rain this week. We sure need it. As bad as we are, there are worse places not far away. 2%, 65%, 76% of average monthly, calender year, and water year respectively. |
