Early spring bulbs are putting up leaves through garden mulch. Birds and other wildlife are very active at the feeders, with flocks of robins eating seeds in the cedar trees.

| Over the week I measured 0.15" of rain along with an occasional, brief snow flurry or two. Pretty much all the snow has melted-goodbye white Christmas- with about a half inch still in my front yard with more open areas generally bare. I didn't see much runoff at all, so it seems that most of the snow melt somehow made its way into the soil. That said, local waterways remain low and slow and the U.S. Drought Monitor continues to show this area in an abnormally dry drought. So mildly dry soil conditions remain. Trees and shrubs look about the same as last week although lawns that are now exposed appear largely green. So there is some color out there. We had a few more sunny days this week compared to last week but as fast as the weather is changing lately, cloudy days are sure to return. Been seeing different birds from the usual chickadees and juncos with some purple finches showing up along with a cardinal or two and some nuthatches. Saw a lot of deer tracks in the snow over the week and one set was surprisingly large. It would have been interesting to see the deer that made those tracks. |

Lawn grasses are brown from the frost and freezing temperatures we are now getting as our winter approaches. Soil moisture is good. Winter weeds are growing since the big rains from a couple of weeks back. My lawn renovation is at a standstill with no work done due to Christmas decorations spread out over the yard.

| I received about 0.30 inches of rainfall this week. Just a trace of snow. The ground isn't frozen, as I was able to put in some metal stakes for a fence about 1 foot deep. Thus all the rain went into the ground. I am now just below double my normal December precipitation, around 0.60 inches fell. So doing really good. However, very windy at times, with winds of 70 to 90 mph, thus the moisture is kind of going out of the ground as it goes in. No snow depth at all. So for late December, that isn't too good. Everything is brown/dormant. Attached a picture. Overall, continue with near normal conditions. |

| Our weather was dominated mostly by changes in temperatures and a small amount of drizzle, and light rain this week. Our Seven day storm total rainfall for this week is 0.08" inches, but this is definantly not enough rainfall to help with our developing drought conditions. Next, our grass in our lawn is a mixture of some patches of green grass, but also includes mostly dry dormant grass. We also have several patches of various green plant seedlings coming up in our yard despite our overall lack of significant rainfall. Lastly, area wildlife have been active with multiple sightings of various species of birds, various species of flying insects, and a few deer. It is notable that I haven't heard any coyotes howling recently however. |

| Fire danger is low. Water is abundant, at times this week, more than we appreciated! Three and a half inches of rain on Thursday into an already saturated landscape was impactful. Some area roads were closed - one major route near us for over 24 hours. Even roads that remained open often had areas where water was flowing over them a few inches deep. The mobile home park at Carver was put under level 3 evacuation. I haven't yet been by it to see what happened there. Our little creek was up by at least 3 feet sometime during the night Thursday, and our footbridge was taken away and the 6 big logs that had been stuck under the Mattoon Road bridge were also all gone. I think I saw one of the longest go downstream in Clear Creek Friday morning. A number of trees came down. Most were ones that had been standing dead since the 2020 fire, but I saw a big live dougfir that came down too. Some of these fell across roads and driveways, and were quickly cut up by residents. Our neighbor was caught out front cleaning out our culverts - much appreciated. The power has winked a few times - but not been out over a minute. A cable service company was here for several hours one morning doing something with their overhead lines. The warmth that accompanied this rain means we have not used nearly as much firewood this winter as we usually might. Grass is still green and growing fairly well. In fact, I seeded some into weedy and bare spots. We shall see how that goes. Birds made themselves somewhat scarce in the early part of the week - maybe the hawk was hunting, but I didn't see it. The deer seem to be hanging out up on the hill - it is probably not safe at all for them to ford our little stream, and there is a livestock guardian dog up there which may be keeping the coyotes away. We have now exceeded the average precipitation - both for the calendar year, and for the water year. Yesterday was mostly dry and somewhat sunny, and most of the water issues locally have subsided significantly. Our puddles are smaller, and the creek dropped probably a foot and a half, if not 2 feet. |

| Another week -- with "measurable precipitation" -- 0.09"! Otherwise, sunny and dry (the moisture came as mist.) So any gardening needed irrigation. Winter came with a light frost, and we have had a more colorful week/fall than usual for this area. But fire danger remains high, and near record high temps are expected this week, so we remain concerned about drought. |
