| Still waiting for the monsoon especially after talk of a wet one this year. Still early but nothing looks promising in the near future. Due to the extremely dry conditions, decided to lower the Condition Scale Bar down one notch to the lowest level, "Severely Dry". Another very dry week with no precipitation. It was windy most of the week with a very high fire danger. High temperatures were warm with highs in the 80's. The high of the week was 88° on Friday. Lows started off mild but cooled as the week progressed. The low of the week was 45° on Thursday. The wildland areas are very dry with brown grasses and some green plants with flowers. Saw a robin, hummingbirds, finches, and black birds. Also, saw a garter snake in the pond. |

Plants and crops are growing well and many local farmers were able to cut and bale their hay this week. The vegetables are doing great and producing many tomatoes cucumbers and beans. Soil moisture is still adequate but declining from the wetness of a couple weeks ago. The nearby stream is flowing still but levels have fallen this week. There is no fire danger at this time. |

The campgrounds and RV parks are full. Still seeing lots of young birds in the gardens--yesterday there was a juvenile Spotted Towhee, which is good to see since that species is under pressure.

| General: It's pretty normal heat right now, and normal precipitation for July. We expect almost 1/2", and we're already at .04" in these early days of July.
Agriculture: The mustard and grain crops are doing fine. The little dab of rain we got last week was welcome, for sure.
Energy: This is a high production period. Yesterday we produced 96.42 kWHR and only used 27.14 kWHR. As we look at our electric bill, for this all-electric house, we realize that we only have to pay for utilities 3 months out of the year. A true secondary benefit is that, right now, the utilities around the country are instituting rolling brown-outs because of heat and fire risk due to global warming, and having solar means that during the day we'll have access to energy.
Fire: risk is high.
Plants/wildlife: Birds are still nesting, though some have finished. We still have some butterflies, and the bees are having a field day on our milk weed. We're seeing a lot of plant drying now (normal) increasing fire risk, of course. We have a couple of deer who have taken up summer residence down in our scab region.
Water: We're, of course, dry for the year. Many farmers in the Snake River plain are not planting due to lack of access to irrigation water. Fortunately, our neighbors use dry land farming techniques so aren't susceptible to ground water restrictions. |

| After the start to a hot and humid week with Extreme Heat Warnings, the week ended with lots of heavy rainfall with some severe weather. The last three days have seen 2.12" of rainfall, which replenished the moisture that was evaporated by the extreme heat. All To-Date readings are on the plus side of NOAA Norm. There is some standing water in some fields that are low and prone to that. Nearby corn loved the hot and humid conditions and has continued to get tall but does not appear to be tasseling out yet. Beans look good and my garden is flourishing with tomatoes turning and a plentiful crop of green beans to pick. Also cut a couple nice heads of broccoli. Area rivers are on the rise with the rainfall but are not expected to flood. There is a slight chance of rain today, otherwise the rest of the week looks mostly dry with summerlike heat which will allow wet areas to dry out. |

| Rain for the week at this location was 4.61 in. making things a little damp and hard to slot a mowing time. Also keeps the wife busy vacuuming up ground water in the basement that comes in through cracks in the cement in places in the floor. We are on higher ground, so the only flooding we see is in a waterway in the field, just South of our property line. In heavy rains it will sometimes get clear up in the pasture almost to the wife's South garden for a brief period. Gardens are doing well this year except for both of the type's of beans she has planted which has never happened before. Maybe they don't like the moisture we have had so far this year. Crops, grass and everything else are looking good at this point. Made our annual trip North about three County's yesterday to spend the 4th with a classmate and some friends that we have been doing for over 25 yrs. Crops up there are a little behind us as usual. As we were a little early we drove around a bit before arriving and went to a very nice camp ground in the area we had eaten at last year.

| A grand total of 0.01” in the preceding week, though this morning’s catch of 0.37” is definitely encouraging, especially given the forecast for early this week. Were it not for the overnight rainfall would have switched ratings to moderately dry – will hold mildly dry for now. Meantime, the area still shows improvement (particularly lawns) from the 6/23-6/24 event. That said, without drip irrigation the veggie garden would be a sorry sight. Beehives arrived on the bogs a few days ago. Pond level is normal; wildlife activity appears normal, and our one remaining cygnet continues to grow and appears to be in robust health.

| Scorched is a good word to describe this past week. The heat dome that baked the Midwest moved east, covering the better part of New England before it moved offshore. Four days of hazy, hot and humid conditions wasn't just unpleasant, it came with air quality alerts and the potential of severe thunderstorm alerts. The heat wave lasted four days, including two days in a row where actual temperatures reached over 100°, just the 4th time that has happened since record keeping began.
It was dry the entire week here. We received a few sprinkles twice as storm cells passed nearby, but the gauge was dry in the morning on both cases. We could really use a good rain, and that may be coming Tuesday according to the forecasters.
Despite the heat, some flowers are still blooming. Yucca are in full bloom and milkweed are feeding the bees. Local farms have had strawberries although it is coming to the end of that harvest. Blueberries are ripening nicely and will fill the void.
Songbirds are still visiting the feeder and bird bath, joined by squirrels, chipmunks and even bees - no doubt for the fresh water.
This week marked a milestone, of course, celebrating 250 years since declaring independence and beginning a new country. Happy Birthday America! |

| Current conditions are moderately wet, which is a reversal from a very hot week. The National Weather Service issued extreme heat warnings during the first four days of the week due to temperatures reaching the 90s and high humidities pushing heat values into triple digits. Electricity demands strained the power grids and burn bans went into effect. Local beaches were full and campgrounds reached capacity. Overnight Thursday into Friday, rain arrived but yielded to sunshine and heat during the day. Friday afternoon a severe thunderstorm arrived which emptied the crowded beaches and chased boaters off of Lake Michigan. This storm caused numerous tree failures which closed roads and interrupted power. At least 400,000 Michigan customers were without power. Intermittent rain has followed but with warm temperatures. The gauge catch captured 0.99 inches of rain for the week, all since early Friday morning. It is currently wet with puddling. Soils are wet at the surface. Hess Lake remains high. Local corn has exceeded the “knee-high by the Fourth of July.” Lawns and overall landscape are lush and green. The first black raspberries are beginning to ripen.
