Since last reported on 03/30/2026, recorded 0.05" of precipitation on 04/02/2026 from light rain the previous afternoon and evening. Checking the topsoil this morning, soil is dry and dusty down to the 2.0" level. Soil is slightly moist at the 3.0" level. Native grasses continue to sprout and we have better coverage of green grass compared to previous report. The NIDIS Drought monitoring map was revised recently to include our area from no drought to D0 drought conditions. I haven't heard any updates about the 24 fire lately, so I assume it is under control. There were Red Flag Warnings this past week primarily to our south where the wind was stronger. Provided supplemental water to our recently planted trees yesterday and to some of the perennials. Observed two Meadowlarks singing away yesterday and a pair of low-flying geese headed west. Cottontails were observed around the neighborhood. Pikes Peak received a fresh coating of snow from the storm I mentioned earlier. Bird bath has been frozen regularly each morning. With the precipitation at the beginning of the month, I will maintain a Mildly Dry Condition Scale.
