Precipitation has been light this week, but last week's large amount of precipitation has kept soil moisture near normal. A dusting of snowfall has also provided a little precipitation, even though the snow water ratio was dry for Alabama (much greater than 5:1). Evergreen plants remain healthy, dust activity is low, and fire risk is low.  View

A roller coaster of high temperatures that started at 39° last Sunday and then rose into the 40's before rising more to 57° on Wednesday before cooling again into the 40's and rising to end the week at 55° on Saturday. Lows started in the teens before rising to the 20's where they stayed for the rest of the week. The low of the week was 18° on Monday. No precipitation fell last week and snow from the previous week has slowly melted and is now patchy in the shady areas. No strong winds last week. Daffodils are slowly getting taller and tulips and crocus are poking up out of the ground. No change in plant life in the surrounding open areas and not much wildlife seen last week. Only a few birds. Did smell a skunk one day which was the first sign of a skunk in the area in a long time.  View
2/1/2026  AR-PL-1 ARPolk Mildly Dry General Awareness
We received only a trace of precipitation this week that fell as snow flurries. The 2 week total is 2.3” and most of that fell as sleet last week and is partly still on the ground. It has been much colder than normal this past week with only a couple of days above freezing and several mornings in the single digits. Some melting of the ice has occurred and is improving the soil moisture deficit but there is still no improvement in the low water body levels. Plant/crop growth is basically non existent due to ice cover and cold. Local graziers are feeding much hay to their livestock. There is low fire danger at this time.  View

We had a small amount of rain since the last report -- just .39 inches. Not much impact on the overall amount this rain year so far. We are still well under the 40 inches needed to get us through the dry season without possible water restrictions. The weather has been mild during the day -- shirt sleeve weather. Signs of Spring are starting to show. Buds on the local ornamental plum trees are opening their pink blossoms and the hyacinths and daffs are starting to bloom. Dozens of birds are now feeding on our wax myrtle trees, since these are some of the last sources of winter berries. Quite a show of Yellow Rumped Warblers, Robins and Flickers. Ocean conditions were largely favorable for fishing this week, though there was some heavy surf. Not as many tourists in town.  View

General: Starting to sound like a broken record. I've attached a figure for the last 27 years of Januaries (Uncalibrated totals), and this isn't the lowest, but certainly is low. I'm leaving us at Moderately Dry. Agriculture: The winter wheat still has cover, though minimal, which should help it over-winter. Energy: Yesterday was generally clear and we produced more than we used: 42.28 kWHR versus 37.85 kWHR. Fire: Low risk at this time. Plants/wildlife: We saw a bunny track, which is unusual for up here. We have had bunnies off and on, but generally we have so many predators here, combined with hard winters, that we usually don't have them. Water: I'm concerned because of snow pack.  View

Another cool, dry week. Very little precipitation from light snow. January ended up at 38% of NOAA Norm with WYTD at 75%. I am going to keep the rating Mildly Dry for now, but if there is not some decent precipitation come February, I will probably move to scale to Moderate. Rivers remain low and completely ice covered. Conditions are supposed to warm this week with daytime highs above freezing with limited chances for precipitation.  View

With only two days that had traces of snow, bar is set st Mildly Dry. My YTD precip is 0.89 inches with NOAA 30 yr norm of 1.80 inches, 49% of normal. My WYTD precip is 7.54 inches with NOAA 30 yr norm of 9.27 inches, 81% of normal. Snowpack was 4.5 inches at end of last weekly report period, and 3.0 inches today - snow melting slowly due to the continued below normal temps. A murmuration ( some would say plague) of starlings in our back yard on Friday, also a group of robins. Neighboring Woodstock is gearing up for Groundhog Woodstock Willie’s prediction tomorrow.

This mornings brief trace was the only precipitation that we had for the week but plenty of cold temps. Even with the cold temps there was shrinkage of the snow cover in areas and the winds had the fields blown pretty clear. A lot of manure hauled this week. Don't see a lot of wild life movement in the area yet but the wife reports the dog finds lots of suspicious places on their walks. The Wooly Bears were pretty much on the mark so far.

0.84” rain/snow melt, 1.0” fresh snow this week, with the freezing rain last Sunday making a real mess of things. Melted snow & ice made a thick crust on everything and single digit temps kept it intact. Road out front wasn't cleared until Friday. Luckily our power stayed on, as we were hunkered down and not going anywhere. Had to use a garden spade to chop through the crust to get snowpack depth. A frostquake one evening had us thinking a tree landed on the roof. Deer aplenty in mid-day appearances. Birds enjoying the sunflower in the feeder. Lots of hawks hunting.  View

January wraps with a catch total of 4.20” – pretty much bang-on to PRISM average (4.22”). Ground is snowcovered, a bit less pack each day due to compression and sublimation. Pond has been completely frozen over since 1/26 snowfall so no waterfowl are visible. Terrestrial birds and squirrels are active at the feeders; haven’t seen much other wildlife other than plenty of tracks.

A snowstorm Sunday and Monday brought the snowpack to well over a foot and brought precipitation for the month and water year to near normal. Temperatures well below average resulted in no snow melt while brooks and streams remain frozen over and snow covered. There is ample snow on Mt Greylock trails for snowmobiling, and skiing, though very cold temperatures have been limiting activity. The snow is also excellent for snowshoeing once a trail is broken. The deep snow doesn't seem to hinder the deer with their long legs, or the squirrels and rabbits that can stay on the surface, but the coyotes, fox and porcupine have been making good use of my packed snowshoe trails where it suits their purpose.  View

The U.S. Drought Monitor has my town split between D0 and D1 so I suppose we are actually "mildly dry" but with 15 inches of snow in the past week (12 still on the ground) it is difficult to say that surface conditions are anything but near normal. Having said that we haven't had this much snow on the ground in several years. The birds are flocking the bird feeder but I haven't checked the cameras since the snow fell so I don't know if any unusual 4 legged activity has occurred.  View

Snow has dominated the week, with temperatures colder than than we have seen in years. These conditions have brought on memories of what winter used to be like back in the "olde" days. Much of the eastern and midwestern states have been in a polar vortex. Locally, most nights have been in single numbers for temps, even daytime highs are below freezing. That set us up for snow. Over about 36 hours, we got about 14" of snow this week. A seven inch storm the week before hadn't melted much bringing the snowpack to about 18". The SWE for the week was 1.89", up to 2.42" with the unmelted snow from the earlier seven inches. Much of our daily activities have been affected by the snow and cold. Schools and businesses have had "snow days" including working from home. Shoveling, snowblowing and plowing, trying to deal with ice dams on roofs have been the focus of many of us. Stories of broken pipes (freezing and thawing) and leaking roofs (ice dams) are both on the news and part of neighborhood scuttlebutt. Groundhog Day is tomorrow. No matter what weather predictions for Pennsylvania will be, it's a reminder for all of us that in a month or so, winter will be mostly behind us. In addition to the usual birds, squirrels and rabbits, what appears to be a fox visited my yard recently. That's an extra benefit of snow - telltale footprints capture things that otherwise might go unnoticed. That's a bit unusual for the center of town. The local ski area has been packed. Kids, both large and small, are taking advantage of weather conditions. It's all good...  View

Our conditions this week were Near Normal with 0.31" of precipitation falling over 6 days as 8.6" of snow. The week had a snowpack ranging from 11" to 13.5". January ended with us getting a monthly total of 2.51" of precipitation (very close to NOAA monthly average of 2.53") and 36.3" of snow. Daily high temperatures this week were way below seasonal average never getting any higher than the mid-teens (F), and getting as low as -8F this morning. Once again, icy conditions and low visibility caused by blowing snow resulted in traffic accidents on local roads. Many schools in western Michigan including our local schools were closed a day or two this week due to hazardous weather, and some school districts are running out of "snow-days". Many birds have been seen daily at our bird-feeder and water bath, and many waterfowl are still seen on the open waters of the river. The Kalamazoo river is still mostly open except for a lots of ice that is forming around islands and slower channels. The local millrace is has a small channel running in the middle (see attached photo), but has frozen over in spots resulting in water back up that is flooding our local river walk.  View

The streak of 17 days of measurable snow ended this morning in exchange for bitter cold temperatures (-12.1 at 7:00 this morning). Speaking of cold, temperatures never threatened to thaw at any point during the week, which has left a persistent snow pack with huge piles of snow where it was plowed in parking lots or due to wind drifts. Lake Michigan is reported to be 26% frozen and it is ice as far as visible in this area. Curiously, Hickory Creek remains in its liquid state. Wintery weather continues to cause traffic problems, school closures, and high demands on the electric grid. The full range of winter outdoor winter activities remain available. Snow often fell during high winds so data are probably lower than actual but are as follows: gauge catch 0.58 inches, snow 13 inches, snow water equivalent 0.86 inches. The snowpack this morning averaged nine inches. Hopefully the eventual thawing will be gradual but as long as freezing temperatures continue, conditions remain normal.  View
2/1/2026  MI-RS-11 MIRoscommon Mildly Dry The air is very dry, causing a lot of dry, itchy skin for me and my dogs. Also, because the air is dry the snow has been very light and fluffy making it easier to shovel, while producing little water when melted.

January started somewhat mild with slowly increasing Temperatures reaching a Hi of 47° by mid-month, then shifting gears and took a week to remind us of the bitter chills by dropping to -20° over the course of a week and departs with a measly 4.4” of Snowfall. The Snowpack showed significant melt from 10” to 4.5” rather quickly. The remaining pack is a much harder mix of ice and snow making it difficult to dig down and retrieve a core. It’s definitely been a meager Winter so far. Heck, several of those deep South States have received more Snow this weekend than we have, including total Snowpack. February has just started off with a quick early morning Snow Shower of 1.2” and a rising Temp(s) from 19°. Forecast: Temps slowly rising with highs reaching above freezing by mid-week. Partly Cloudy increasing to Mostly Cloudy skies. Light Winds and no Precipitation expected.  View

Weekly precipitation was 0.19 inches. This precipitation came in the form of sleet that fell after the 7am observation last Sunday January 25, 2026, and ended before noon that day. This was a continuation of the heavy sleet event experienced here from January 23-25. This event dropped 4.5 to 5.0 inches of sleet in the area. The liquid water equivalent for the storm was 2.52 inches and most of this water is still locked up as ice with 3 inches of ice still on the ground as of this report. Ice has been with us for 8 days now. We have been cold and frozen over and able to drive anywhere we desire on the farm (across fields, through ditches) all without leaving a track in the dense ice (only in the morning, by afternoon the ice layer would be melty and softer on top-especially Wednesday and Thursday when we went as high as 11 degrees above freezing). With rain in the forecast this coming Tuesday, it will probably get really mucky for a while this coming week as we thaw out and all this moisture begins to soak in. Here were the low temperatures each day this past week: 16,14,14,18,24,25,16. The highs:26,22,32,39,43,33,24. In conclusion, ground conditions are solid ice right now with colder than average temperatures in place this past week. We are near normal for rain so far this calendar year, but 74% of normal for the water year so far. Another note of importance: many buildings are not constructed to hold the weight of 5 inches of sleet, (especially in this area), the number of collapsed sheds, gas station awnings and even entire buildings (I have seen this first hand this past week) continues to grow. We lost a large span open sided shed this past week (and it fell on lots of our equipment) and the greenhouse attached to my house also collapsed. We never lost power though (we didn't have freezing rain). Areas just South and East of here had a very damaging freezing rain event at the same time we were measuring sleet in inches.  View

Epic "winter" continues. The ground is bare again (first time on this date since I started observing 13 years ago). Only the heavy rain and early snows in October/November keep the water year numbers near normal. Only the high mountain slopes (>7000') are white. Late summer runoff might be OK, but will there be enough spring runoff to fill the reservoirs? I fear for the trees when/if we get a cold snap, because buds are appearing.  View

with 23 days without any measurable precipitation, I would call it severely dry if it wasn't for the very wet December. But water year precip is still above normal. Streams are flowing at near normal levels. Dirt roads are incredibly dusty, dustier than they are in the summer. Weather has alternated between cold, dry, and sunny and warm, dry, and cloudy, so the ground has been going back and forth between frozen and unfrozen. No snow at mid elevations, close to normal SWE at high elevations, but the snow has taken a beating from the wind, sun, and warm temps and makes for poor skiing if you can even get up there at all. Saw a snowshoe hare down low on the bare ground last week--it really stood out against the brown backdrop.  View
