FIRE - Somewhat dismissed this week due to over an inch of precipitation for the week. However, this came in two days, meaning we had 5 days with sunshine and no precipitation. From our location, we could see and hear thunder and lightening each day, but this rain and storms were concentrtated in the interior part of the state. ENERGY - A bright spot for the week and energy consumption. Highs and Lows were mostly within Average Temperature ranges allowing the AC unit to get some breaks during the nighttime. GENERAL - It is extremely interesting to witness the weather pattern that has developed this Summer: Rain and Thunderstorms all developing and raining in the Interior part of the state. When we have had rain, it has been gneerated by storms coming from either the SSE or WSW. No matter the origin, we would always accept any moisture no matter the source or direction.  View

Well after our wet spell over the first few weeks of August, the expected dry weather returned as only a trace of rain was recorded this week. The soil dried out pretty fast with mostly low humidity and sunny days, returning the soil to a mildly dry condition. Waterways have cleared up and dropped to their normal levels. Trees do look good and area lawns are green and still growing pretty fast. At one point so fast I was beginning to wonder if all the excess CO2 in our air was having an effect. Haven't seen too much wildlife prepping for Autumn yet but I did see a large and unfortunate turtle that failed in its effort to cross our busy road. For me it's always a sad sight to see. While I had no interest in feasting on it numerous and obviously hungry crows had other plans and were busy trying to snatch morsels between the passing cars. It was quite the busy and raucous gathering.  View

After abundant rain & very wet conditions in mid-August, a dry stretch has started setting up. Around 1.00" of rain has been measured the past 12 days. This hasn't impacted the garden or grasses yet due to over 5.00" of rain the first half of August. However, stress may be more apparent in the coming weeks since no appreciable rain is expected the upcoming week with temperatures well into the 90s.  View

We have received no rain this past week. Our overflow pond has a drying mud appearance. Each morning has had dew in the grass and several times heavy condensation on rain gauge and cars. Our farmer cut and baled the third cutting of alfalfa. He only had six big bales on the front and back fields. The third cutting is usually less than previous ones. My garden continues with tomatoes and peppers. The sweet potato vines would like to take over the garden but I move them back to their own area. Soybeans are still dark green and hedge-like. Corn ears have darkening silks. We are still working to keep up on weekly moving of yard and pastures. Rabbits have little ones of which our dog has killed two or three. We don't see deer very often and when we do the doe has a single older fawn with her. I think she has separated from the male fawn. We see a lone deer more often. A skunk has been busy digging for grubs in the yard and orchard. I notice that the cone-shaped digging show dark, loamy soil so we still have moisture down there. I have seen/heard two small flocks of Canada geese (7 in one, 10-12 in the other) flying SE in the morning. On Wed. 8/26 11:19am we received an emergency peak time event email from Ameren asking us to reduce our energy use from 3-7pm that day. They said there was to be an unexpected high demand on the grid during that time. We complied. This week has given us some lovely early fall days without such high humidity and temperatures.  View

I have noticed that during this lack of rainfall, some plants are experiencing a lull in flower production, especially on lantana and hibiscus plants. My efforts to irrigate seem lacking as far as continuous flower production. But I’m only trying to keep the plants alive until the next rain, not necessarily make them thrive. This area’s borrow pits, or small ponds in neighboring yards, have lost at least one foot of water through evaporation and lack of rain. But Mother Nature had other ideas and began to provide daily rain events to help towards ending the mini drought we’ve been experiencing. The forecast is for a 30-40% chance of rain every day next week! We have a few migrating hummers in the area this week enjoying the fresh sugar water that is waiting for them.  View

Boat towing same as last week, meh, low. BUSINESS: Local and regional traffic for construction has been good. Lots of heavy equipment moving through but loggers this week, low. farm machinery picked up a little. Local contractors, about the same as last week, steady. -----WILDLIFE: Deer are still running around. Velvet on the bucks antlers, all deer I have seen are honey blonde both male and female, no swamp deer, geese have been flying back and forth up and down the river, some headed south.

The overall hot and dry weather continues with only 0.01 inch of rain this week. The dewpoint has been mostly below normal for all of August. The temperature has been above normal each day since July 23. The soil is dry with blowing dust occuring during thunderstorm outflow wind. The above normal heat is causing high evaporation, dryness, and high energy use. Field flowers are few. Tomatoes are not doing well in this heat. There are no crickets or moths. The Sandia Mountains are dry and dusty with little plant and grass growth, and there is a forest fire in the Manzano mountains. Water flow in the Rio Grande River in Albuquerque is zero. Our water supply is adequate but with mandatory watering restrictions in place.  View

A very hot and dry weather pattern remained over the area this week with only 0.06" inches of measurable rainfall being observed. I looked at how much rain I have recorded for August 2026, which is 0.17" inches, and it is officially my second driest rainfall total I have measured for any August since I started reporting precipitation amounts for cocorahs in 2014. Next, our soil conditions remain dry and sandy with no noticeable moisture in any of our topsoil. Our grasses, and trees remain in a stressed state at this time due to a lack of rain, and I have noticed that most of our local animal activity has been occurring in the morning and during the evenings. Lastly, It is my hope we can begin to bring in our cool Fall temperatures and hopefully some rainfall at some point in the future, however I glanced at the forecast for the next week and It appears hot temperatures and no rainfall will continue for sometime into the future.  View

With another 0.77” of rain earlier this week, conditions remain near normal for end of August. The Pascoag reservoir has held steady at 8’11” and is not quite overflowing the spillway. Canadian geese are getting noisy on the lake getting ready to migrate. We are also seeing the Bald Eagle, Blue heron and various hawks. We haven’t heard the Baltimore orioles for the last week or so, so they may have left for the season. The lawn is growing fast and needs mowing more than once per week. Our tomatoes continue to produce like crazy, another bumper crop. For flowers, the Rose of Sharon and Tree Hydrangea are in full bloom while we sadly cut our last gladiolus of the season for the vase in the kitchen. They are such great cut flowers.

For the month of August 1.? inch of rain was reported in the San Antonio area. This is 1. inch less than the August historical average of 2.15 inches. Rain gauge total was 1.11 inch. The lack of rainfall for the month compounded with weeks of upper 90’s to over 100 degree temperatures created moderately to severely dry conditions in the San Antonio area. This resulted in more landscape watering and less water available for plants and wildlife. The Edwards Aquifer levels ranged from 638.28-652.10 ?? feet with an average of about 646.0 feet. The historical August aquifer average is 657.6 feet. Stage 3 Year Round watering restrictions were changed to Stage 2 early in the month. The region is still recovering from a five year drought. Wildfire threat was moderately to severely high with fires reported. Average low and high temperatures were 76 and 93 degrees, with low and high temperatures recorded at 72 and 97 degrees, respectively. Energy costs were higher due to extended hotter temperatures.  View
