The week started off very warm before cooling as the week progressed. The week started with a high of 72° last Sunday before dropping into the 60's and then into the 50's. Lows were mostly in the 20's and 30's though one morning had a low of 43° due to wind. The low of the week was 25° on Friday. Speaking of the wind, it was windy on a few days last week but nothing extreme. It was a very dry week with no precipitation falling. More plants continue to come out of dormancy with a maple tree budding out and the peach tree has buds swelling. Also, saw the first forsythia bloom and harvested the first asparagus. Saw some robins drinking water out of the pond and a few other birds in the garden. Also, smelled a skunk on my morning walk.  View
3/8/2026  AR-PL-1 ARPolk Mildly Dry General Awareness
We received 1.51” of rainfall this week and have had 1.56” in the past two weeks. The rain we received this week was spread out over several days so there wasn’t much runoff. Soil moisture has improved somewhat but still seems to be lower than expected as are water bodies and streams. Plant/crop growth is very good with the warm weather and now adequate water. Local ranchers are reducing hay feeding due to grass growth and availability of forages for their livestock. Fire danger has been low this week due to the rains.  View

A mild week with 0.61" with temperatures averaging 60 for a high, 52 for low. Ruth Lake Reservoir at 104% percent on 3/2. Mad River at 8 feet and slowly dropping, as is the Eel at 13 feet. Good fishing for steelhead predicted for the South Fork of the Eel, Van Dusen, Smith and Chetco rivers, with clear water running, ahead of possible rains late this coming week. Trinity at 48 degrees, Klamath 50, and the ocean running 52-54. The biannual appearance of a Rufous Hummingbird this week, as they migrate north during March, and pass by again in September. More blooms on weeds, bushes and trees as the days lengthen.  View

Only a trace of moisture in the gauge this week,from two nights of foggy drizzle. Strong gusty winds returned for a good bit of the week, drying things out. Daytime temperatures have been unusually warm, hitting the high 70s yesterday. Buds are swelling on many early bloomers and it appears that some of the winter migrant birds have already headed out.

At the risk of jumping the gun, I am going to update my Condition assessment to Moderately Dry from Severely Dry. The short-term state has improved a lot with this last storm. I don't think the long-term state has been affected much until we get another few storms. This last 9.8" of snow and 0.71" of SWE has helped, but the usual winds are moving the snow around and my snowpack went from slightly over 7" to just at 2" in 2 days. Much of that is settling and melt into the ground. % of Normal PRISM totals are MTD 193%, YTD 87%, and WYTD 67%. WYTD is the concerning number. Snowpack SWE in my basins are 68% for 6-Digit HUC, and 77% for 8-Digit HUC. Still a long way to go. Stream flow in Moraine Park was hovering around Normal until the storm hit and it has been very inconsistent going more than 2x normal to almost nothing (probably due to some colder temps?) No new fire restrictions in the area, just the normal Stage 1 permanent ones. Snowpack in the park has increased and the sledding hill at Hidden Valley has decent sledding. Plenty of snow for snowshoeing and skiing, although many of the trails are blocked with down trees making x-c skiing difficult. Downhill skiing was very good on Friday at Hidden Valley. Plants are still dormant so hard to assess their condition. Still lots of visitors to the bird bath and the deer have been frequenting the neighborhood browsing mostly on ponderosa needles. They look healthy though. There have been an increase in sightings of mountain lions around town. Not sure what is driving that but perhaps the lack of snow is making it harder for them to catch prey. I have not seen our resident bobcat or coyotes.  View

General: My long-term (28 year) uncalibrated average for March is 12.5" of snow, and as of Thursday, we are at 12.3" for March (thanks to a 9" snowfall on Thursday). That having been said, we are still more than 2 SD below the mean for snow for the year, and we're running out of snow-time. The long-term uncalibrated snow total mean is 110" (SD=39.02"), and we are currently at 44.5" for the snow year, which is nearly 3 SD below the mean. I've called it "moderately dry," but at >2 sd it should probably be "severely dry." Agriculture: I'm worried about spring crops. We have good snow cover right now, but it's also melting fast. Energy: The solar panels are covered by snow right now, but on March 4 we produced 59.61 kWHR and used only 29.81 kWHR. Fire: Risk is okay right now. Water: Again, I'm worried. We're so far down on snow that it doesn't bode well for spring runoff.  View

I received 2.81" of rain this past week, abut .09" above the March normal. There is standing water in low spots, but otherwise little ponding or even water in ditches, not too surprising given how dry it was prior to the rain. Homer Lake is near the top of the spillway. Grass is starting green up from the rain and mild weather last week (70°F on Friday).  View
3/8/2026  IL-HY-30 ILHenry Moderately Dry Good shot of rain from thunderstorms on Friday into early Saturday morning. Ground was soft so the 1.16" that fell over the 24 hr period soaked in. Even though there is a big surplus for the month, the ground is still dry and will take several more soakings to make up the shortage of moisture. Forecast for more storms on Tuesday and Wednesday. Will take all of the moisture we can get. The dead looking turf is showing a bit of green. I am so ready for spring!  View

03-08-26: Condition is moderately wet. Turf releases water underfoot. Puddled water still remains in a few spots after approximately 2 inches of rain over the past few days. Drain tiles 12 to 18 inches deep were inundated for 2 days by backed up flow down stream of the drain outlet. Sinkhole ponds flooded, but beginning to drain slowly. Man made ponds are flooded and in some cases have reached the level of overflow drains. Lack of significant precipitation over the past 24 hrs has led to reduced runoff resulting in surface drying, otherwise condition would have been Severely Wet.  View

Noticed yesterday that our peach tree is starting to show signs of breaking out from winter dormancy. Burn bans have been lifted in response to the 1.47" of rain we received in the past week. The water level in our ranch lake is still down 15% from capacity. All of the precipitation we received was quickly drawn into the soil. I saw no evidence of runoff and very little standing water after even the heaviest of the rains we received.  View

Heavy rainfall over the week has finally pulled our local area out of our long drought. Most plants have not started growing yet, but the grass is vibrantly green. Some minor flooding is still ongoing in some areas, but in most the ground has become well-saturated. Overall, it is leaning mildly wet, but very close to normal. Forecasts call for more rain and the potential for some severe thunderstorms and flash flooding over the coming week.  View

Moisture for the week at this location was a welcome 2.28 in. No run off as soaked into the ground. The only snow left I can see is in a road ditch South of us. The wife and Festus report there were a couple of spots of standing water in the North pasture, what used to be a grove before the tornado years ago, low spots where trees were up rooted. I think there is also the possibility of an under ground spring in the North East area of that pasture as it shows moisture until the dry part of the Summer. Some manure was hauled again this week. The Llama say's there is critter action in the field to the South after dark. I wish my sense's were half as good as his.  View

March is historically the wettest month around here, and this one is off to a wet start, with 2.08” in the preceding week. That and fog have played havoc with the snowpack, which is now discontinuous. The decreasing snow cover is revealing just how much tree/limb damage was done during the blizzard – a lot of the evidence was buried. Pond remains frozen over and of normal height; wildlife activity appears normal.  View

We got 1.65 inches of liquid equivalent precipitation last week which erased the February deficit and brought us to nearly normal for the year. The precipitation was a mix of rain, snow and sleet which, along with temperatures moving into the 40's and 50's, has reduced and changed the character of the snow pack. While the snowpack is still nearly a foot deep, the consistency has become loose granular and is unable to support much weight. Wildlife activity for heavier animals has diminished. Mt Greylock trails are slushy, with occasional bare spots in normally wet sections. The snow is not suitable for snowmobiles, snowshoes or skiing and a challenge to walk on. Bassett Brook is running somewhat high from the snow melt and snow bridges have collapsed. Maple sap is running and my hobby operation is active. Morning birdsong is increasing and the first geese have started migrating north. Normal conditions for early spring.  View

It was foggy and misty for the last 3 days. This morning the snow depth in our yard was 13.0 inches. This afternoon the sun came out and the temperature reached above 50°F. We spent an hour chipping ice on our now icy/slushy driveway to promote drainage. The stream near our house is running well. The stream's culvert under the road is about 1/3 full. The only birds we are hearing are crows. We don't have a bird feeder. Today is the first day of daylight savings time. The afternoon sun is uplifting.  View

10" of heavy wet snow covers about 90% of the landscape. Warming temperatures are causing the snow cover to melt but not too rapidly. Streams are filling up.

All signs suggest the seasons are changing and we're moving into spring - starting with everything is wet. Between the snow melt, snow and rain this week, and warm foggy mornings, puddles are building up, mud is forming and there is a dampness that seems to touch everything. About 1 1/2” of precipitation fell this week as snow, freezing rain (with ice buildup everywhere), fog and rain. The ground is still frozen so puddles are forming, and snowpack is finally melting. Most of the yard still has about a foot of undisturbed snow, but it is shrinking. The bottom rails of split rail fences are visible now for the first time in weeks. My hope is to walk over the undisturbed snowpack again and get some catches soon. Daylight Saving Time started this morning, a bit of a chore changing clocks but it will be nice to see later sunsets. The usual winter birds are still around, Juncoes, sparrows, woodpeckers, nuthatches and an occasional pair of cardinals. The crows are still around most days and red tailed hawks are an occasional sight as well. Squirrels and rabbits are the most common critters, but now that snow piles are getting smaller, tunnels created by field mice are becoming visible too. Weather forecasts predict a couple days of temps into the 60s and possibly reaching 70° here and there before dropping back to more seasonal conditions. Spring is not far behind.  View

Our weather this week fell into an early spring pattern bringing us Mildly Wet conditions with 1.78" precipitation falling over 4 days as rain. The week started with a trace of snowpack that rapidly melted with daily temperatures roller-coastering between a little above seasonal average in the mid 40's(F) to way over seasonal average getting into the mid-50's and 60's (F). We had our first significant thunderstorms of 2026 on Friday, which were powerful enough to generate rampaging tornadoes in counties south of us with tragic consequences for the communities that were in their paths. Fewer birds are visiting the bird-feeder daily. The first snow drop flowers of the season are blooming in our neighborhood. The recent rains of this week along with the snowpack melt from a couple of weeks ago have resulted in muddy local farm fields with a lot of standing water in low areas.  View

For the week ending 3/8/2026, conditions were SEVERELY WET. The 7-day cumulative precipitation total of 2.42 inches was 210% above the 13-year (2009-2022) average of 0.78 inches and in the “severely wet” range; the 30-day total of 3.57 inches was 4% above the expected 13-year average of 3.42 inches and in the “near normal” range; and the 90-day total of 10.43 inches was 2% above the expected 13-year average of 10.25 inches and in the “near normal” range. There were 4 days of measurable precipitation, with a max of 1.94 inches on the 7th. There were 0 days of Snowfall & 0 days of Snowpack. Temps ranged from 72 F (on the 6th) to 21 F (on the 2nd), with average Hi/Lo temps of 52/37 F (+12/+13 relative to last week). Precipitation Trends—March to Date: 2.42 inches (up 1.79 inches, 381% of PRISM Normal); Year to Date (2026): 7.05 inches (up 1.04 inches, 117% of PRISM Normal). Winter Conditions (November 1-to-Date)—New Snow on 48 days, with total of 93.9 inches (vs 17-year averages of 38 days and 66.0 inches); Snow Pack on 74 days, with average daily depth of 7.1 inches (vs 17-year averages of 66 days and 5.5 inches). Spring-like weather prevailed for much of the week. Trace amounts of lingering snow covered had disappeared by the beginning of the week, with Crescent Lake quickly becoming ice-free by mid-week. Other than the usual Canada Geese and a couple of Mute Swans, the lake was devoid of waterfowl this week. The usual spring flocks of diving ducks departed early, perhaps because of unusually warm temperatures. Turkey Vultures returned to the area and the sound Sandhill Cranes overhead has become a daily event. A pair of Eastern Bluebirds was checking out one of the bluebird boxes today.

Conditions are moderately wet. There is a lot of field flooding, draining ditches are close to capacity, and Hickory Creek is nearly full. The icepack on Lake Michigan is breaking up. A week that began dry with freezing temperatures steadily warmed with rain arriving by midweek. On Friday, we had our first weather drama of the season. The day began foggy with 99% humidity and eventually warmed to 71F with several thunderstorms passing through. An EF-2 or EF-3 tornado dropped to the county east of here, traveled through two other counties, and killed at least five people. An EF-0 tornado northeast of here did not do any damage. The warm weather did bring out more runners and walkers. Trees are not yet budding but the first spring flowers have broken the soil. Bird activity around our feeders is lower than normal but the first common grackles arrived. The week concluded with no snow but 0.93 inches of rain.  View
