| The temps have been in the deepfreeze this past week. We did receive snow on a couple occasions that proved it doesn't take a lot of snow to create white-out conditions. The deer are gathering in herds early evenings searching for food in the fields. It is difficult contemplating there can still be that many in the area after hunter season is over, but 30 at a time is way too many. They eat crops year round and are partial to alfalfa, cover crop, and soybeans. Not many birds at the feeder tho they must appreciate it with the cold temps and snow cover. |

| First report in a long time. Very cold today 19º and all standing water is frozen, 1.38 taken from gauge after unthawing. Currently experiencing a hard with storm event that has brought extreme cold temps and a lot of rain/sleet mixed in my area. No Sleet has accumulated on the plants or tress, power lines in my area. We have not lost power during this event over the course of the last few days when others have due to trees, limbs, breaking due to weight. The ground is saturated in my area as there is standing water in the fields and ditches.
This station is approx 300’ from the Tombigbee River which is rising. So that adds another diamension to this storm the potential for River flooding in an extreme cold situation. The roads are clean with no ice accumulation. With the river height being up it may affect Commerce , Barge Traffic. Propbably no one will be out fishing.

| I received 0.05 inch of precipitation with 0.6 inch snow on January 24 and conditions are drying out. I rate this week as mildly dry. Temperatures were generally about normal this week except for January 21, which was about 13 degrees above normal and January 23 and 24, which were more than 20 degrees below normal, with highs in the single digits and lows below zero. The ground remained frozen solid. Precipitation here for January is now 1.11 inch, which was 0.47 inch above normal (174 percent of normal). Precipitation for the water year is 1.03 inch below normal (82 percent of normal).
Plants and wildlife.
The soil is dry near the surface and the grass is remains brown due to the cold weather and frozen soil. Bird visits to the heated bird bath have increased this week due to the cold weather and dry conditions, with approximately 25 species of birds (about 140 to 150 birds each day).
Water Supply
Water level in Standing Bear Lake (approximately 0.2 mile to the east of here) is slightly below normal. Area creeks and ponds are also slightly below normal.

| In the past week we experienced typical winter conditions with temperatures in the low teens up to about 40 degrees one day. The arrival of a major Winter Storm, Fern, brought temperatures in the single digits, wind chills up to -20 degrees and 13.5 inches of snow by 8:30 pm last night, the 25th. Trees are in dormancy and almost all vegetation is buried in snow. Temperatures have continued to stay below 10 degrees. Most wildlife are not visible and appear to be staying in their burrows, dens, or in the woods and thickets. Birds have been more active while they search for seeds, berries, nuts and/or gather around feeders. The snowpack will continue through the coming week as temperatures are not expected to rise above the teens. Wind chills will be of concern throughout the next few days. |

| Cumulative liquid and melted precipitation remain below normal for December and January, but with 1.20 inches of liquid in the record daily snowfall of 9.5 inches over the past 36 hours, moist antecedent conditions from October and November, and very low winter drying rates, it is difficult to justify anything but a near normal classification. Still, stream flows remain low and we could use more moisture. |

| Although it is near normal for this time of the year with snow we have just endured Winter Storm Fern and registered a total of 6" of snow at Station OH-WS-12 with a trace or .02 centimeters of sleet/ice on top of the snow. This has caused some difficulty in getting the measurement of the snow depths due to getting measuring device to the bottom base of the snow board equipment. In addition, neighborhood dogs and people are having difficulty walking due to no walking through the snow but actually walking "on top" of the snow only to fall through due to sleet/ice crust on top of the snow. Birds are active and feeding at feeders through the entire storm. All weather equipment including Anemometer, Windsock and weathervane continued operating nicely through the storm including during the sleet/ice.
Sun is just attempting to break through the overcast on Monday January 26, 2026 at 11:26am. Roads are still covered with snow and ice. Station OH-WS-12 and all of Washington County Ohio is still under a Level 3 Snow Emergency with Non-Emergency Vehicles prohibited from roadways. |

| Another week of sunny days and cold frosty nights. Temperatures in the 20s at night and high 30s during the day. We did have one cloudy day with a afternoon sprinkle. Looks like we might have a couple more days of this before the weather turns back to rain. Relative humidity has been low in the mornings for this time of year, down in the 20s. The local creeks are almost dry for the lack of rain and no new snow in the mountains. I have to bring the hummingbird feeders in at night to keep them from freezing, got to keep them happy. |

Got a total of 4.65” of rain and SWE for Jan. 1– 26, 2026. The 30-year average precipitation for my area in January is 2.51”.
Therefore, precipitation for 2026 is starting off good after having a shortage of rain in the summer of 2025 with very high temps causing garden and flowers to dry out and suffer.
