The two heavier Snowfalls that came through the last couple of weeks apparently didn’t make an impact on the dry grounds. The water content was not significant, and the Snowpack was gone within 2-3 days. A week of zero Precipitation didn’t help. Most of our state was under a Red Flag Warning yesterday due to the dry conditions, along with high winds and low humidity. The tinge of green in the grass has not expanded, but I do feel some shrubs have started looking a little healthier. I’m itching to start cleaning up some of the rotting leaves and mess but now is still a little early. I’m also watching closely for a period of light Rain Showers so I can drop some grass seed in my backyard. We have Ice-out on smaller area lakes and several more ducks and geese enjoying being around. Our roller coaster Temperatures are normalizing to seasonal levels this week.
Forecast: Warm to start the week with Temps reaching the 60’s and 70’s as an April Fool’s joke for the next two days, then dropping to the 40’s the rest of the week. Mostly Cloudy skies with random chances for Rain and Snow Showers, with maybe up to .5” of water.
