.71" of light rain this week has helped plants thrive, tho we are still behind on rain for the year. Boats are coming out of storage, and tourists are thronging downtown since temps began rising into the 60s & 70s. A beautiful time of year!  View

rain this week has helped the immediate surface situation, but the longer-term rain deficit is not much changed. So, immediate pressure on plants is reduced, which is good, but not eliminated.  View

We had 5 dry days and then a quick early morning rainfall with some hail one day and then finished out the week with some heavy showers as a frontal passage with collision of warm moist air and cool air was right over us. That produces some locally heavy rains in our area and to the south of us more so.  View

0.04” rain this week over 2 days. MTD=0.74”, while last year was 5.21”. Creeks a trickle, barely enough for a thirsty dog. Seeps just wet the rock face, no rivulets or falls. Our ponds are as low as we've seen them (equal to Sep/Oct 2022), down 18” or so. Seeing spring-filled ponds makes us jealous. Grass is slow growing. More corn and now beans coming up, first hay coming down, more seeds going in. Magnolias blooming. Pair of pileateds playing tag on the trees in the front yard. It's nice to see them up close; they normally stay in the woods. Pairs of quail are regular visitors to the yard, hen turkey in the back yard, does grazing in the field, none with young'ns yet. Beautiful Northern water snake sunning on the dock. Skinks and lizards sneaking around, quick to hide.  View

0.56” in the preceding week, which was disappointing (busted rain forecast Thursday/Friday). We’re just over halfway through May and stand with a 1.88” total, which is just over halfway to average, so I really can’t complain – but the upcoming week looks dry. Would like to see some recovery to April’s deficit (worth noting that the state just downgraded local drought conditions from Level Two to Level One). Will hold to “near normal” for now. Garden soils are reasonably moist, but have started using the drip irrigation system. Trees, grasses, flowers, brush, all of it are growing well. Pond level normal for this time of year; wildlife activity is normal.  View

The past 11 days have included only two zero precip, and two trace precip, although our heaviest day was less than an inch. Talk around is ‘when is it going to stop raining?’ Several little league games/practices canceled due to wet fields, in Chicopee, next town from my station. My yard is nicely irrigated, no puddles. I noticed a bunched mushroom growing in my yard when I mowed. I row on the Connecticut River 3x [or more] a week, and it sharply increased with this last cold front passage of 14/15 May, with much tree debris floating on Saturday morning row.  View

What a difference a week makes. Conditions are mildly dry. All standing water on the property is gone and drainage ditches have little standing water. Surface soils are dry, even a little dusty in places. Lawn growth has actually moderated slightly. The catch gauge captured 0.08 inches of rain all week. The unseasonably cool weather finally yielded to warmth by Saturday which seemed to generate the most vibrant outdoor activity of this spring. More runners, walkers, bikers, and anglers are out. Confidence that we’ve experienced our last frost of the season has agricultural and gardening activities in high gear. Numerous crop fields are now plowed and farm implements are frequently on the roads traveling from field to field. Plant nursery parking lots are overflowing. A Baltimore oriel made a brief visit. The overall landscape is appearing a lusher green. It looks and feels like mid-spring.  View

A whole .05” this week. The cooler temperatures this week helped but now we’re really ramping up. Humidity continues to be low. Plant stresses increasing. Many plants are not recovering overnight, but are still droopy in the morning. Streams are very low. To germinate seed in the dry soil now would be almost impossible without irrigation. Very rough time for farmers trying to plant seed. Hoping for a big change later this week. I’ve never seen conditions like this in May. Insects activities seems to be low. Likewise birds seem a bit desultory.  View

Rainfall for week ending this Sunday morning of 0.24" is much less than the normal of nearly an inch. The total for May so far of 0.71" is 1.5 below normal. The running 365 day total has dropped further to 40.62" and is a foot below the 1991-2020 30-year average of 52.79. And only 15.83 of that came during the last 183 days. After several dry weeks and warming temperatures, near-surface ground moisture has been depleted, and grass growth has slowed. Deeper moisture has been low for quite a while. Stream flows continue to decrease. Manual watering needs have been frequent. Have selected Moderately Dry as the condition category, even though it is on the verge of becoming Severely Dry. Unseasonably hot temperatures forecast through this coming Wednesday will only exacerbate the dryness. And there is no guarantee that any thunderstorms that come at the end of this heat wave will deliver much rain.  View

No rain to report and the drought map has all of our state in either a severe, moderate or extreme drought. I’m keeping the bird baths full and the garden watered so the garden is doing well. Blueberry bushes are yielding lots of berries and the peppers are doing well too. The tomatoes are also coming along. I will probably fertilize them all today. Some of the ponds are down over a foot now and probably more with the heat that’s projected to come this week. I’m getting out early morning or late afternoon to do garden chores now. What a dry spell!! I hope this breaks soon but you never know what Mother Nature has in store for you so we just have to do the best we can. Well, all for now. Stay safe and hydrate when you go out….long sleeves and hats with sun block is the rule of the day for me. Get out as you can and be sure to mind the weather.  View

Rain on three days in a row dropping 1.13". This brings the monthly total to 2.97" at the just over halfway point. The NOAA normal is 2.00 so the first start of a wet month in quite a while. No garden planting this past week with the rain and cold, but the potatoes did start popping thru the soil. Friday I purchased tomato, peppers and basil. They will be in the ground by weeks end. Hummingbirds are showing up more often with sometimes two having a little battle over the feeder. Everything is lush green and springlike with some of the last trees now leafing out.  View

For week of 10-16 May: (1.0+ 12.5+ 15.6+ 3.0+ 1.0+ 4.0+ 0)= 37.1mm, Mildly Wet. High's: +8C to +17C; Low's: +10C to +2C; Wind: Calm to V gusts to 44km/hr during rain. A mildly wet week with rain, showers and/or drizzle almost every day. Waterways are all flowing. The grass is now growing rapidly. You can almost watch it grow! Daffodils and tulips are in full bloom. Trees are in full bud. Smaller bushes are in bloom. It feels and looks like Spring. Our front yard is awash in a sea of yellow Dandelions. The yellow is vibrant. Peepers are now making a regular racket. Gosh they're loud!! We made a couple of elevated veg troughs called Trugs. They are meant to deter any four-legged critters, and birds, but allow sun, rain and pollinators. This is a total first for us. Should save my back and be fun in the sun and the soil. Planting lettuces, carrots and herbs for my first go. Got to start small and work up. Heading into May long weekend. Traffic, grocery stores, and gas stations very busy. Price of gas still very high. Staying home and gardening.  View
