General: We're dry, for sure. I've measured for CoCoRaHS for 6 years, now, and we are at >1sd below mean for liquid for March (1.45" vs 2.93"). We are currently at 13.64" gauge melt for the year, and our 6 year average is 20.96, though we still have a lot of water year to go. Weather service said that this is the warmest March on record by a long stretch.
Agriculture: Our neighbors are working the fields, now. I think I misinterpreted green in the field as winter wheat, and it's just cheat.
Energy: Strong solar energy production. We produced 59.43 kWHR yesterday, but used only 20.92 kWHR.
Fire: Risk is high.
Plants/wildlife: I saw a beaver working on his dam on Buckskin, and we're seeing more species of birds. Still not a large number. Rare mammal sightings.
Water: We are at risk, for sure.
