| We received another 3.64” of rainfall this week and it has rained almost every day. The 2 week rain total is 7.68” so conditions are moderately wet. Soil moisture is mostly saturated and streams and ditches are nearly full which is unusual for this time of year. Plant growth is good but the vegetables are not producing much due to all the clouds and rain. Local pastures and hayfields look good but the wetness is limiting harvest. Temperatures have generally been in the mid 80s most days. There is no fire danger. |

| Most of the week was marked by the gusty north wind, but we had a brief episode of gentle, soaking rain that gave us another half inch early in the week--all good for the water supply. By the end, the wind had shifted to the south and the fog and cool weather returned. Foggy and damp with dew outside this morning. Always good for the landscape. The gusty winds made for heavy ocean conditions and limited fishing and water sports for most of the week. Many visitors in the area despite the wind. Participants in a local pickle ball tournament had some issues playing in the wind. |

| General: We remain dry. A recent rain brought June up to close to our 6 year average, but we remain 4" below our 6 year average for the water year. Admittedly, we have a little time to catch up, but it won't help the crops this year.
Agriculture: The mustard and wheat look good, following the rain we had last week. It's a little more bleak in Pocatello and the Snake River valley, where it is reported that many farmers are not planting because of water restrictions (one of the benefits of our neighbors dry land farming). This is not a great year for agriculture and, by clear association, those who eat the product of farming.
Energy: Yesterday we created 101.94 kWHR of energy, and used 25.91 kWHR.
Fire: Clearly, high fire danger.
Plants/wildlife: The hummingbirds are definitely moving through, which is always a delight. We continue to mourn the loss of the beaver dam on Buckskin, which was destroyed by the Bannock County Roads and Bridges crew. This not only created a pond that recharged our aquifer but was a place where we observed ducks, geese, moose, deer, beavers, and other animals. It was a major resource for animals (human and non-human) and is now almost completely dry.
Water: As above, we're in trouble. Our lack of snow this year is having a significant impact on all of the downstream people and animals. |

| What a difference a week of good precipitation can make. This station went from Moderately Dry conditions last week to Near Normal this week, helped by 4.1" of rain over the course of seven days. The week started with a big deficit of MTD precipitation only to turn around with a large surplus this week. MTD is +2.19" (199%) of NOAA Norm, with YTD at +1.61" (110%) and WYTD +0.48" (102%). A lot of the rain came in heavy downpours during severe weather, but the ground has softened and absorbed most of the liquid. Brown grass has greened up and quickly grew, garden looks great and area crops have shot up. Area rivers have risen, with the Rock River experiencing minor flooding. Hot and humid conditions from last week will turn to more comfortable conditions this week with highs in the 70's with chances of rain on Tuesday and Wednesday. It will be nice to turn the AC off and let fresh air blow through the house. |

| Just under 5 inches of rain in the last week has the soils saturated, the creeks high and everything green. The question now will be how much of the 5 inches we kept and how much went down those swollen creeks. Crops look fine and my issue will be whether the pasture starts growing now just as we get close to when it would normally start drying out. More rain predicted for this week so good chance we'll be moving to the wet side soon. |

| 0.28” in the preceding week, and 0.45" is our MTD total. That’s against a PRISM average of 3.64” for June, and it doesn’t look like the upcoming week will do much. Although May hit to point, April was dry and June so far is what it is, so it looks like we’ll close out the third quarter of the Water Year at around 50% of average (although we’re still pretty close to average for the Water Year overall). So it’s time to change designation to “Mildly Dry.” Things are still lush and green and everything is growing fast, but things in some places are a bit dry and dusty. Pond level is normal, as is wildlife activity. Lost two more cygnets to predators this week; the count is down to three of the original nine. |

| Summer is here - loud and clear! It's been hot and dry this week with just over a half inch of rain (0.60" and three Trace days). Most of us in eastern MA have met the three-day criteria of a heat wave and it ain't over yet (as they say).
Drought conditions continue. While we are lower on the drought scale (low to moderate) we could use a few days of good soaking rain.
Locally grown strawberries are ripening and are showing up at local farm stores. I am not alone in looking for them and was delighted to find some this week. Strawberries in June, blueberries in July - time to bring out summer recipes that highlight these treats while helping to support the local farmers.
Rhododendron and azaleas have pretty much finished blooming. Columbines have also finished and are creating their seed pods for next year. Iris have also passed and doing the same. Roses are startung to bloom, and buds are showing up on clematis vines. Canna bulbs are sprouting their stalks for flowers in a month or so.
For some reason, there seem to be fewer squirrels around while the number of chipmunks appear to be growing. The groundhogs have returned (sadly) - likely waiting for my heirloom tomatoes... Lots of songbirds visit the feeder and bird bath. With so little rain, other creatures (including insects) are making regular visits to the bath as well.

| Our erratic weather pattern has flipped again towards Moderately Wet conditions this past week with 2.63" rain falling over 4 days including a couple days of severe thunderstorms that spawned high winds and tornadoes. High winds brought down my neighbor's maple tree, snapping it off mid-trunk; and also causing widespread power outages. Temperatures and humidities were above seasonal average during the first half the week--getting as high 91F on Wednesday, and then going back down to more pleasant seasonal averages with lower dew points the rest of the week. Lawns are now lush and growing again. Considerable time and energy has been expended this week cleaning up storm debris on my lawn and throughout the neighborhood. Mosquitoes have been swarming in high numbers in the woods, and are also becoming noticeable in shady areas in town. Ticks are also out and active now. Both of these critters are known to carry diseases: mosquito-borne West Nile virus has been detected in SW Michigan, and tick-borne Lyme's disease cases have been "ticking" up in Michigan in recent years. Lightning bugs (firefly) flashing in the twilight were observed this week. |

| Even before the 0.07 inches of rain arrived overnight, conditions were and are moderately wet. A series of storms, some severe, dropped rain throughout the week, totaling 2.44 inches. Tuesday morning had 1.17 inches of rain and Friday morning has 0.88 inches from two storms that occurred the night before, the second being particularly violent spawning nine tornadoes in the Syracuse, Indiana NWS reporting area. Powerful straight-line winds combined with the tornadoes caused numerous extended power outages. Surface soils are moist with puddling persisting in drainage ditches and low-lying areas. Lawns are returning to a thick, lush green and are requiring more frequent mowing. In between storms, the weather has often been hot and humid which has made Lake Michigan beaches busy and more outdoor exercise is occurring in the morning when the weather is still pleasant. Crops continue to grow in soggy fields and local produce is still limited. |

| Haven’t had rain for a while and if we do, it’s a trace. And it’s been hot. We had bought some flowering plants that supposedly love the sun, but this 90-degree weather withers them. Have to set a vinyl chair in front of them to protect them. The chair has holes in the back. This hot weather is way too early. Years ago, the temperatures got into the 90’s starting in the middle of July and ending beginning of September. I don’t know about local agriculture around us. Our chives are at the end of their pretty purple bloom. My husband tore out all the raspberry plants that grew behind our neighbor’s shed because they interfered with the neighbor getting access to paint it. The black raspberries were pulled out because we had too easy access for chipmunks to get under the house. So he lined the skirting of our mobile home with blocks. Rhubarb plants are flourishing.
Using our heat pump air conditioner for the really hot days.
I don’t know of any fire warnings. Just north of us and just south of us, they have received lots of rain causing flooding. Missed us almost completely, so any fire warning would be in our city. We took the bird feeder down due to lack of birds. The seeds encouraged the chipmunk population. So now have one hummingbird feeder up and as soon as it was up, we had hummingbirds.
Our grass and gardens are doing well. Flowers get watered twice a day. No water restrictions. Merrimack River had a little bump in the height due to the excess flooding up north, but now it’s down to about normal.
This is NH Motorcycle Week. Lots of motorcycles have invaded the state. Races up at the speedway in Laconia
