| This summer is requiring way too much watering to keep things alive. I’ve even started to water less with the thought that plants may begin to stress but I’ll at least keep them alive. Around the area, including Fort Collins, it seems more and more trees looked stressed with browning leaves, or have lots of top dead branches (the locusts in old town are looking poorly), or dead. Many spruces in town have died in this last 1-2 years. |

| With a little help from Tropical Storm Bertha we finally hit a rainy streak and it now has rained 9 out of the last 14 days. It still is below normal for the month by 2 or 3 inches and the rainfall amounts were not very impressive but it's much better than it was a few weeks ago. |

| Although we got .40" last week from 2 very local thunderstorms, it had been 3 weeks without any rain, with very hot temperatures. The past week temps climbed to the extreme, up to 99, and so there is nothing left of that rain. one fire is now burning 6 miles west of us up in the high country. It's mostly in rock and scree and is 105 acres, but as usual the USFS is using it as an excuse to log 5 miles away. Very smokey here, but smoke is mostly coming from far away in Oregon and Washington. Grass is brown and dormant. |

| We have surpassed the average monthly rainfall for the first time since October. Summer is our wet season, and July is our usual wettest of the year, averaging nearly 7 inches over the last 30 years. We're now at 8.02 inches for the month. We are still at a deficit year to date, but are no longer dry. |

| In the last 7 days I recorded 0.98 inch of rain and my ET gauge recorded 0.79 inch of evaporation. The rains was a big benefit for agriculture and the upper soils got needed injection of moisture however my observations suggest the ground water supply is still loosing. Lawns are still green but have slowed down with less frequent mowing. High temps have been normal and my A/C has been on and off. Fire restrictions have decreased a level than last week. Been 4 days since the last rain folks started watering their gardens again. Mosquito population reduced again, any open surface water disappeared a couple days after the last rain. |
