| Conditions are mildly dry. The soil is cracking. The lawns still are green. Stream flow is low. Grass seed requires watering. We could be approaching moderately dry next week and enter the beginning of a drought Do - ABNORMALLY DRY if we do not get a significant rainfall event by the middle of next week. The rainfall has been scant the last 2 weeks. |

| We have been without measurable snow through the winter and the last measurable rain was 5 months ago. So even for our area it is extremely dry. The grass/weeds/groundcover I leave in fall to protect the soil is crunchy and most has blown away now in the wind so the dirt is following it. The ground has cracks in it where it is bare and around buildings. With the remarkable rain we had last year there was much growth but it is now gone and the wildlife and rabbits are digging up roots to eat. It looks like it did in 2008. I am on the Volunteer Fire Department and we have had several very large and wind driven fires in the Tucumcari area already. We do not have cattle on our 35 acres and the single horse is fully dependent on hay at present. |

| Have not updated this in a while but we're getting to a bad place as far as any precipitation in this part of the Green River valley. In the past 2 months we've had less than half an inch of measurable precipitation and almost all has been accompanied by strong winds which quickly evaporate anything that falls and desiccates the ground and vegetation. And to make things worse the winds have been almost constant with days in a row with sustained winds over 20 mph with gusts over 50 prompting multiple Red Flag fire days. Wildlife has been scarce so far; birds have also been few with just a few Bluebirds, swallows, a stray Robin or two and barely any hawks. Even the Sandhill Cranes have been fairly quiet for this time of year. Our Mule Deer and Antelope population has seemingly vanished for the past month or so moving to less dry locations. Local vegetation has turned mostly brown and the few Aspen trees we have still don't have any buds showing. The cold snap we had last week seems to have kept the them dormant. Even our weeds seem to be having a hard time getting going. Overall, we REALLY need some rain (or snow!) Photos attached show the overall dry conditions with mostly brown vegetation, dry fields and dusty conditions. |
