Society & Public Health
Rain amounts have varied widely throughout the immediate area, where within 20 miles radar rainfall estimates range from near 0.00 inches to 4-5+ inches. At this station, however, rainfall totaled about 1 inch for the week, including about 0.73 inches yesterday. Therefore, conditions are mildly wet. This rainfall has helped support the plants, which (especially in shallow soil) were beginning to slow their growth and even turn a little brown. Dust activity has been reduced to normal levels, fire risk is low to normal, and streams and lakes are normal.  View

Rain chances all week but only a trace of rain the first couple of days and then no rain until the end of the week. Rain and thunder Friday afternoon with more substantial rain in the evening. A little more rain on Saturday but most of it fell on Friday. The total rain for the week was .45 inches. Temperatures were warm with highs in the 80's all week. The high of the week was 88° on Thursday. Lows were mostly in the 50's with a low of 55° on Wednesday. No strong winds but breezy with thunderstorms around. The surrounding wildland and open areas are still green with lots of wildflowers blooming. Harvested the first green beans out of the vegetable garden and the corn is about finished as is the squash. One large pumpkin is developing on the vine. Otherwise, the asters are blooming and the grass is growing fast. Finches and hummingbirds frequent the garden daily. No other wildlife seen.  View

We received 1.51” of much needed rain this week and the two week total is 1.52”. We are still in a drought but conditions have improved. Temperatures were hot early in the week but have dropped some late in the week due to the cloudy skies and rain. Soil moisture has increased at least in the upper part and seems closer to normal than last week. Crops and plants are starting to grow again but there is still a lot of brown and dead vegetation. Wildfire threat is reduced due to rain and humidity but we are still under a burn ban. Streamflows and water levels are still very low.  View
9/13/2026  CA-AL-67 CAAlameda Near Normal General Awareness
For the week of September 6 - September 12, no precipitation, maximum high temperature 94.0 deg F, minimum low temperature 53.6 deg F, evapotranspiration by ET gage = 0.84 in. Marine layer has been mostly absent all week, with the year's highest temperatures since the week of March 15 when there was a similar heat wave. High temperatures led to temperature inversion and strong atmospheric ducting, with a sustained period of 240 - 480 nautical mile AIS VHF 162 MHz reception from late 9/9 through early 9/11. Normal, consistent maximum receive range is 50 nautical miles.  View

June, July, August, and September are all above normal rainfall, but since normal is so small, that rainfall hasn't made much of an impact on our landscape. Trees and other plants are showing some signs of stress. No impact on our well that we can tell, although i have heard one story of a laundromat without enough water to function. Looks like we will end the water year at 90% of normal.  View

No rain in this report period and a couple of quite hot and humid (for the coast) days. When temperatures get up to the mid-high 70s, we start to feel the always present humidity. It cooled off by the end of the week with the return of morning fog. Lots of visitors in the area still, particularly for a major wine festival this weekend. A good number of fishing boats out, as ocean conditions were favorable. Our young raccoons seem to be getting bigger every day, and we how have a pair of foxes in the gardens. Birds are flocking for the winter. Some of the ornamental and fruit trees have lost most of their leaves, so Fall is definitely on the way.  View

With about 17 days to go to the end of the 'water year', we are at 86% of normal, with 11.54" of rain. The land has long ago dried out and turned to the California golden brown landscape except for the Coast Live oaks that I have provided supplemental water during the hot dry summer. This summer was above average for nighttime temperatures so a cooldown at nigh was absent. The sea surface temperatures are slightly above average as well. I have provided seven watering stations around the property for the wild animals, and they have been well attended as I have had to refill some of them twice a day. We look forward to the winter rains!  View

Sep monthly rainfall a bit more on track with total of 1.23" so far, with most of that occurring over the past week. Grass really perked up with the much-needed rain providing a brief respite for the above-average temps. Pine trees have been shedding some needles as they do this time of year. There is normal wildlife activity, and lots of late-summer butterflies. Fields appear to be workable, as most crops have been harvested and corn fields mowed.  View

General: I was gone for 2 Sundays, hence my lapse in reports. I'm placing us as moderately dry, based on the delay we've had for September moisture. I shouldn't compare with last year, which was really pretty remarkable, but even years before were a little earlier and had more rain. We are currently at .27" for September, compared with my 6-year average of 1.243". We have a ways to go. Agriculture: Crops are in, and now the ground is ready for Fall moisture. Energy: Still in heavy production stage for energy, with 70.09 kWHR produced yesterday and only 23.51 kWHR used. This will continue into the end of December when Idaho Power resets our account. Then we'll have 3 months of power bills as we bank our energy again. We watched a show last night talking about how air conditioning would increase the global warming (of course), and realized how marvelous it is to be creating the energy we use for things like air conditioning and heating, rather than contributing to the global warming. We still have the refrigerant issue when the system gets recycled, of course. Nothing is free. Fire: Danger is still pretty high. We've had a couple of red flag days this week. Plants/wildlife: We're definitely in "Fall" mode. The hills are very red now, and aspen are turning. Hummingbirds moved on this week, but Chickadees are here to stay. Crows seem to have migrated, while magpies remain. I was driving late on Buckskin and saw 2 moose and 2 Great Horned Owls, which was wonderful. water: We're dry for time-of-year.  View

Precipitation from a storm over an 8-hour period this past week put down 0.91" of soaking rain, but conditions still remain Mildly Dry. Grass is still slowed in growth and some of the areas that had turned brown still remain that way. MTD still remains below NOAA Norm at -0.56" (62%), however YTD is still above Norm at +2.42" (109%) and WYTD is +1.29" (104%). Crops have continued to dry down with a couple of area farmers beginning corn harvest. Area rivers (Mississippi, Rock and Green) remain low. The hummingbirds continue their daily battles for feeder time. I assume they will begin their migration south sometime in the next few days. Until then, I will continue to enjoy watching the feisty buggers.  View

Only 0.17 inches of rain at my station after one Chicago tv station predicted 1.04 inches for my area! Grass is still green and lush and growing quickly. Zinnias respond to the shorter days and lower angle of the sun with fewer and smaller blossoms. Only had to water once this week. Hummingbirds active at the feeders and 7 wild turkeys wandered the front lawn this week.

Outdoor sirens also went off. No damages of significance at this location. As a result, the monthly total is now 2.03. Boil Advisory was issued for sections of Linn County, they are all now Cancelled. AC, fans, and open windows all used. Mowing was required. Purple Crocus blooming again. As well as lilies. Acorns and drier smaller branches and twigs falling down daily. Allergies on the increase due to pollen counts stayed high most of the week. Increase in gnats and arachnids and their webs. Bobcat has been spotted near station location a few times this week. Overall Mood. I witnessed normal outdoor activities etc. I think most were happy and content with the break from the heat. Looking ahead, temps might heat up just a bit with more rain chances. Enjoy the beautiful diverse Iowa weather summer into fall! As I am finishing this report, we have some rain sprinkles occurring around the 11AM hour right now. Enjoy the tolerable decent weather while still looking up, ahead, and staying WRN.

Five point nine inches of rain the past week with 5.6 falling in one shot. This was the 3rd highest amount observed since August 1 2007. This fell in an east- west band just south of I-80. Minor field flooding into the pond pushed it into the overflow swale. Otherwise, crops are slowly drying down with some very minor leaf fall seen. I imagine plenty of basements were flooded in the Des Moines metro where 5-7 inches fell.  View

Only a trace in the preceding week; September MTD is only 1.19” against a PRISM average of 4.15”. Would love to see today’s forecast verify – it would even a lot of stuff out - but as of this writing there hasn’t been a drop, and based on the forecast it’s more likely to be a quick dump instead of the long, slow soaker we need. Lawns are doing remarkably well but are browning out in many locations. Seasonal color change is progressing – most species are still green but early changers are well underway (e.g., poison ivy). Wildlife activity and pond level are normal.  View

More than three quarters of an inch of rain Thursday and another inch last night put us well over average for the month and above average for the year and water year. Lawns remain green though growth has slowed with cooler weather and shorter days. Flow levels in Bassett Brook and the Hoosic River are near normal. Fields and forest are wet from the recent rains with water pooling in low spots. Goldenrod is fading and milkweed seed pods are fully formed and about ready to burst. Jewelweed is shooting seeds.

Expecting moderate precipitation today, but previous week brought only 0.08 inches rain, bringing us out of mildly wet. Our nights have been in the fifty degree range and heavy dew in the mornings, so we haven’t dried out. Lovely 70 degree range during the days, early autumn in New England!

While the week started with 0.83" of rain, only an additional 0.03" fell during the week. For the most part the week seemed pretty normal. It started raining within the last five minutes, in between today's daily report submittal and this report. This rain is from a cold front coming through. The southeast area of the state is hopeful that an inch or more will fall. The forecasters predict maybe a half inch here in the central part of the state. Every little bit helps. Autumn is upon us. Shorter daylight hours, low dew points, daytime temps mostly in the 70s are all confirming that summer has passed. I noticed a few nearby swamp maples starting to pick up their orange and red colors. Leaves from the Norway maples have started dropping before changing colors, not uncommon. Several plants in the pollenator garden are going to seed now too. My feeble attempt to grow a few heirloom tomatoes paid off - I picked one yesterday. There are a few more coming from my pots while other gardeners are sharing their excess (sweet corn too). Delightful!  View

After a drier than average August, we have had 1.93" of rain in the past 2 weeks giving us between Mildly Dry and Near Normal Conditions. Lawns are now green and growing enough to require mowing every week or two. Grass areas that were turning brown in August have returned with lusher green growth. Temperatures the last couple of weeks started hotter than average, with daily highs in the mid-90's (F) along with high humidity's and uncomfortably high dew points; but they have trended downwards with highs in the 80's and 70's this past week.

This week finishes with conditions mildly dry. A total of 0.22 inches of rain fell early in the week which was supplemented by very high humidities throughout the week. Surface soils are somewhat dry. Bird activity around the feeders is curiously absent. Deciduous trees are still a deep lush green but some of the shorter shrubs are beginning to yield to autumn. Corn stalks are just beginning to transition from green to tan. Temperatures in the mid-80s by late in the week countered the earlier rains and high humidities, thoroughly drying out lawns by mid-afternoon. The high daytime temperatures and tolerable Lake Michigan water continue to draw people to the beach along with other outdoor activities. Roadside farm stands and local produce markets are packed with all sorts of local fruits, vegetables, and flowers.

Finally, we’ve have broken out of the weeks of high heat an humidity, with low’s in the mornings dipping into the high 50’s, and highs staying in the upper 70’s. This is a 20° departure on both sides. On the other hand, there’s still been now decent Rain to talk about leaving us in a severe drought. Flowering plants have taken a beating this summer and even the trees show signs of distress. The local lake is down and covered with algae, and while the lake is not highly active with boating, I haven’t seen one boat in the water this year. A typical summer usually has several groups fishing, but nothing this year. Forecast: Temps remaining in the low 50’s to low 70’s, with a chance of low in the upper 40’s. Mostly Cloudy skies with a chance of Thunderstorms towards the end of the week.  View
