4/19/2026  AL-MD-143 ALMadison Moderately Dry Had .38 inches of rain this week everything is pretty dry but anything helps. Current river gauge has the Flint river at 7.5 feet that's a little more then a foot below normal for this time of year. Over the past 3 weeks it has dropped more then a foot and is starting to back down even though we had some rainfall. Tree tops are a little greener but grass is still very dead and most ground is still cracked. We do look to be going into a pattern switch for the SE so that's some more good news, but models do show this week being dry tell the weekend where rain totals will probably be around .5-1.5 inches.  View

Recent rainfall of 0.52 inches has moistened the soil, reduced the fire risk, and reduced dust activity. Some plants in shallow soil had begun to brown, but the majority are still green. While the 0.52 inches will help maintain plants, soil moisture, and stream levels, more rain is needed to remove the drought.  View

Temperatures closer to normal last week and windy with the intensity varying some each day but some wind everyday. A weather system moved through Monday evening and Tuesday with some light rain early Tuesday morning. Only .01 inches fell which was the total for the week. High temperatures were in the 60's everyday except Tuesday when the high was 58°. The high of the week was 68° on Saturday. A couple of freezing mornings with lows ranging from 27° on Wednesday to 46° on Friday. As seen in the photo, trees have leaves and grasses and plants are growing but everything is pretty dry. In the garden, the clematis is now blooming. Saw the first garter snake of the year on the rocks next to the pond. Also, saw a rabbit on my morning walk. Many birds are frequenting the yard and bathing in the bird bath and fountain. Saw the first black birds this year.  View

Conditions are still on the dry side but not severely dry. We received 1.07” of rainfall this week and had a trace of rain the previous week. Soil moisture and and streamflows are adequate but below average for the time of year. Plant growth was excellent this week with the rain and warmer weather but it has cooled down significantly this weekend and is 34F this morning. Local pastures and crops are in good shape but not excellent due to the lingering drought. There is low fire danger.  View

Water Year stands at 100% of normal with 41.54", with 0.50" falling this past week. The approaching storm will bump that up. ETo 0.26" and average high and low 59.3f and 42.5f. Ruth Lake Reservoir remains at 101% capacity. No change on the Drought Map. Fisheries folk announced a welcomed season for Chinook salmon only, in the KMZ: June 13-July 19 and August 1-31. Quota is 3,900, which if met early will close the season. Godwit Days well attended this weekend, and by noon Saturday, a couple hundred species had already been reported, including about a half dozen rare birds in the area. The state and Cal Fire issued warnings about the high probability (91%) of a very strong El Niño coming this fall and winter. Similar possibly to 2015, but they also alluded to it being close to the extremely severe 1877-78 one that caused global famine. A Pileated Woodpecker was calling Saturday, a rare treat for this location.  View

Just a trace of rain since the last report, but some coming this week. We continue to be in a slot between rain north and south of us, so we'll see if we get what is predicted. The north wind returned for a few days, making for rough ocean conditions and limited fishing. Our grape vines are just starting to show new leaves and most of the trees are pretty much in full leaf. All of the winter migrant birds are now gone and waiting to see the summer birds show up. Fairly light number of tourists in the area this week.  View

Since last reported on 04/12/2026, recorded only 0.01" of precipitation in the form of 0.20" snow this past Friday. Topsoil sample taken this afternoon indicates powder dry soil down to 3.0". At 4.0" the soil is slightly moist. Provided supplemental water to trees and perennials. Unfortunately, the precipitation we received came with freezing temperatures Saturday morning with a low of about 19F. As a result, many of the deciduous trees took a severe hit in the form of dead leaves. Our largest Aspen had completely leafed out and has dark leaves now. Pikes Peak has a fresh coating of snow from the recent storm. However, the snowpack on the peak is mostly depleted and should be at its deepest this time of year. Red Flag Warnings were post last week on windy days. Relative humidity has been in the single digits making for high risk of wildfires. Grass continues to sprout but I don't know how. Wildlife activity continues to be normal with birds and rabbits everywhere especially in the morning. Seeing more activity among the insects with crickets chirping in the evening makes it sound like summer. With insignificant moisture since last reported, I will maintain Moderately Dry Condition Scale.  View

The dryness continues, only 0.10" in the last 5 weeks. A very hard freeze on Saturday morning, dropping down to 19°. It definitely impacted vegetation. Plenty of trees with droopy or blackened leaves. Most of the perennials or shrubs that we didn't cover have some sort a freeze damage. Our mock orange shrub will have to start over again - completely discolored and whithered.  View

Still very dry in spite of the 1.8" of snow with 0.08" of moisture this past week. Fortunately there was little wind and most of the moisture went into the soil. Grasses and sedges are greening up, but the shrubs (mostly current, boulder raspberry, rabbit brush and Artemisia tridentata) are struggling. Birds and chipmunks continue to visit the birdbath and hummingbirds are beginning to show up. I have had one for the past week and it is frequenting the feeder. Deer and elk have been moving around the neighborhood grazing and browsing what little green there is. Have not seen a lot of insect life so far. Bluebird pair has been checking out one of our nesting boxes so I hope they decide to stay. River gauges that I am monitoring are below the average flows for this time of year, and 2 of them are trending down instead of the norm for this time of year with increasing flow. Snowpack SWE as reported by NWCC iMap shows my 6-Digit HUC is at 36% of median and my 8-Digit HUC is at 40% of median. My DEX dashboard reports I am at 15% of normal MTD, 44% of normal YTD, and 46% of normal WYTD, all measured against PRISM model. There are no new fire restriction. Larimer county has restrictions for all elevations below 9000'. The National Park always has Stage 1 restrictions in place. Other jurisdictions within Larimer County are under the same restrictions. On a positive note, the avalanche danger in the area is Low per CAIC, most likely due to lack of snowpack.  View

Plants need water as does the yard, as it is dieing. There is no use though to water it as it will be just as bad in a few days. People frequently talk about it. Many think there is no more drought as they got 10 inches of rain, so they learn something new. Water restrictions level 1 & 2 are in place. Most counties have burn bans but not all. Wildfires are bountiful throughout the state.  View

April 13 - 19, 2026: A total of 2.02" precip. during the past 7 days--- 0.93" measured on 4-13; 0.58" on 4-14; and 0.50" on 4-16. A series of cold fronts moved through the area with wind, light to heavy rain, and occasional squalls with graupel, hail, thunder, and lightening. Overnight temperatures dropping during the week from 40's to 28° on Friday 4-17. Daytime and overnight temperatures are slowly increasing since Friday AM, but the hard frost that morning has probably killed the first set of leaves on our Japanese maple tree and trumpet vine.. Other perennial plants in the yard and garden have survived, helped by all the soaking rain earlier in the week, but may be losing blooms faster than usual. Birds are very active in the feeders. Anna's hummingbirds are still in the area and black chinned hummers have not showed up yet. Garden and yard plants are several weeks ahead of normal seasonal growth. Feet of snow were deposited on highest elevations in central Idaho and Boise foothills. Most of that snow on mid-range elevations has melted, but peaks are still white. Reservoirs in the upper Boise basin are all nearly full. Water is being held back this spring in anticipation of a very hot and dry late spring, summer, and fall and the need to try to provide late season irrigation water to downstream irrigators. Concerns are that the reservoirs may be drawn down to stream flow by late summer. Wildland fire season probably will begin early, last longer than normal, and be intense throughout Idaho, the West, and Canada.  View

General: We expect to have 1.405" of liquid in April, and we've received 1.06" (sd=.4"), so we're about 1 sd below average (hence "mildly dry"). Agriculture: Slightly worrying at this point. We usually see crops emerging by now, but no green in the fields. Energy: We're in high-production stage with solar, creating 93.55 kWHR yesterday while consuming only 37.74 kWHR (with heat pumps running for heating). Fire: We're moving into high risk now. There have been fires in Chubbuck already. Plants/wildlife: Still very sparse bird numbers. Water: We're at risk, for sure. The state has declared water restrictions. We are using our gray water for plants and toilet flushing, and saving water that would be wasted when trying to get hot water to the tap.  View
