| Over the week our weather gave us quite a roller coaster ride that included wildly fluctuating temperatures, heavy rains, some snow, some sleet and freezing rain and howling winds. Precip totaled 1.16" with 1.08" from rain and 0.08" from a mix of snow and sleet. The ground had definitely thawed out, so a lot of the liquid precip managed to soak in. I was amazed to see a couple of earth worms frozen to my driveway once the cold front had passed. Area waterways have come up to about their normal levels and look pretty good. So it seems safe to say that our soil has finally returned to a near normal condition. The ground went from bare to white and is covered with an inch or so of an icy mix but it looks to become bare again as our NWS is forecasting warmer temperatures next week. Wildlife has been keeping a low profile lately although there have been numerous tracks such as deer, opossum, squirrels, rabbits, fox and probably coyotes. Birds have been at the feeder and some lucky crows found some unlucky mice that had been inside the house. Those crows must be getting hungry as they're getting closer to the house than usual and seem to be less wary. Or they're becoming more tame. Nah. Probably not. |

We received 37,66 inches of rain in 2025 so the ponds are full, the springs are running good and the streams are running normal. We have good sub moisture in the pastures but the wheat has used a lot of moisture in the fields. The temperatures have been above normal enough that the wheat is still growing. |

| It is so very dry here now. We haven't had rain since December 2nd - a whopping .03 inches! We've been missing what little rain has been in the NE Oklahoma area, but there is hope for some good moisture next week. Fingers crossed!
It's been mild enough that I've watered new plantings from the spring and fall a couple of times and feel like I should again. The water level at Grand Lake is low -at least at my house. It's lower than I've seen it here in 6 years. That probably means it'll be flooding all next spring like it did last spring!
I don't know that this dry stretch is affecting anything commercially in Grove. This town is centered on fishing tournaments and lake fun and those keep going so for now, it's okay.
I have wood that washed up in my yard last spring that needs to be burned. It's cut up but until we get some moisture, I'm not about to light it up. If we miss the rain again, I would suspect that there will be a burn ban. The good news is we are supposed to have warm temps on Monday so I can mow my leaves one last time. |

| We began the New Year with warm and dry weather persisting, however we did have a Trace of Rain yesterday. This weather pattern continues the trend of the ground becoming increasingly lacking of beneficial soil moisture, however the grass has continued to grow some in patches in our yard. Next, our trees remain dormant and our flower garden does not show signs of any flowers growing early just yet. Lastly, area wildlife has been active with multiple sightings of deer, birds, and various flying insects. |

| With 0.74” of gauge catch this week, conditions remain near normal for the first week of the new year. The Pascoag Reservoir has frozen over but not thick enough for ice fishing or skating (maybe later this week with expected cold temperatures). With about 2.5” of snow pack, we did see one person out cross country skiing on the edge of the lake. Winter birds like chickadees, woodpeckers, tufted titmouse and blue jays are active. We even saw a cardinal this week which have been surprisingly quiet this year. George Washington state park continues to post Low for fire danger and the NIDIS website shows no drought in the state but there are abnormally dry conditions in the southern half. |

| How to start a new year...hot and dry! We ended 2025 with about a seven inch deficit from normal -- but only because of July floods. Really about ten+ inch shortfall, as almost no rain since that event. This week's record heat has left fire danger very high, and the gardens need constant attention and irrigation. Trees and grass is dormant, though no hard freeze has occurred. Local lakes are still at fairly good levels but slowly falling.
