| Well our NWS predicted roller coaster weather and they did not disappoint. Over the week, temps ranged from the upper 60's to near freezing. Severe thunderstorms midweek accompanied by rain and hail was followed up with a bit o' snow. And those strong gusty winds yesterday will likely be ushering in measurable snow toward Sunday night as Old Man Winter returns. Total precip for the week was 0.37" including 0.2" of snow. Area waterways are still up from the previous week's rain and look to be in pretty good shape. The ground is wet with minor ponding in the usual places. So it seems near normal soil conditions will continue. Area trees are revealing early signs of spring here as small buds are just now starting to appear. Grass is greening and daffodils are poking from the ground while some native weeds are also coming around. Geese are arriving and have been honking for space. It seems kind of early but not out of place. I watched two pair honking, one pair right, one pair wrong; over who gets what but can't they just get along. I'll see myself out now. |

| Heavy rain on Saturday stayed just to our north, leaving us with continuous drizzle throughout the evening and night. Lots of lightning could be seen in the distance. I was able to plant gladiolus corms just before the rain. The soil worked great, and the rain that followed was just enough to settle the soil. However, by Wednesday, record high temperatures fueled strong thunderstorms and tornadoes to our north. Petunias planted in flower beds wilted under the strong sunshine and saturated soil; roots could not breathe. Beautiful weather on Friday. Low areas in the pasture are holding water. Many flowering plants are in full bloom, including sweet olive, pear trees, may haw, spirea, Indica azaleas, banana shrub, amaryllis bulbs, various citrus trees, and senecio weeds in the ditches, to name a few I can see while making this report. My lawn is too wet to cut, and the mower would probably leave ruts in the new lawn in the front yard. Road construction to add turn lanes in front of my home is just about complete. Red clover seeds were hydro-seeded with germination occurring in just a few days. Poppy seeds that I planted the day before hydro-seeding have also sprouted. New mailboxes have been installed. The only obstacle to a finished job is the erosion control fencing still buried along the edge of the highway right-of-way. Drainage within the construction zone is great except for the fact that the runoff from rain collected in the new ditch has nowhere to go when it ties in to the old ditch, which now needs to be dug out. |

There was 1.94 inches of precipitation that was recorded at station NY-MR-89 for the month of March compared to the normal climatology precipitation at KROC airport for the month is 1.13 inches of precipitation. There was 1.1 inches of snowfall measured for the week of 3/8/26-3/14/26. There was 1.3 inches of snowfall that was recorded at station NY-MR-89 so far for the month of March compared to the normal climatology snowfall at KROC airport for the month is 10.4 inches. Conditions have remained the same since the last update from last week with the area seeing some beneficial and measurable precipitation in the form of liquid and frozen precipitation over this past week. The area is currently considered moderately dry (Moderate Drought) which has remained the same (unchanged) since the last update due despite the area receiving beneficial precipitation in the form of rain and snow. The sump pump has been pumping periodically during the week due to the ground becoming unfrozen with days feeling like early spring earlier in the week due to mild air invading the environment for most of days this week to allow for above freezing temperatures this week to allow for melting of the snowpack to infiltrate into the ground and the mild air in the environment arriving Monday, but temperatures cooling off towards the end of the week for Friday and Saturday(no snowpack currently on the ground, but any accumulated snow from Friday afternoon or Saturday had melted) to melt and infiltrate into the ground. Outdoor activities have been good for walking outside with some sprig like mild air in the environment late week and no shoveling of snow had taken place due to very little snow accumulation this week (Friday afternoon accumulating before melting occurred and Friday night into Saturday morning with around a half of an inch of snow depth currently on the ground Saturday Morning) a nice warmup for Monday-Thursday with temperatures reaching into the upper 60s and low 70s and setting a daily high temperature record on Tuesday. Furnace has been working less to heat the house due to the very warm mild air and most days this week with above average temperatures the area has been experiencing in the week, but was given a nice break Saturday afternoon with temperatures warming into the upper 60s and low 70s. The warmup on Tuesday-Thursday this week allowed for the yard to be cleaned up more from winter by cleaning up down branches despite the ground still very muddy with all the snowpack melting and rain falling this week. So far, the total precipitation for the month of March is currently above average and total snowfall is currently below average. |

| Thunderstorms bringing two separate half-inch rains in the past week were welcome, but still a disappointment when multiple inches were forecast. Big rain events in this region either underperform or shift east with remarkable consistency, especially early in the season. Little change since last report. Interestingly, red oaks in creek valley below us are a couple weeks behind the red oaks up higher in leafing out. Presumably this is because our last widespread freeze was on Feb 1, but low-lying drainage areas saw a decent frost on Feb 23.
Some live oaks are spreading catkins and pollen already, but most are still growing them, and pollen levels are not high yet. Hackberries and elms are still leafless.
