First moderately wet week I've reported but we've never had over three inches of rain in one week before ever. And we've been on the edge of the storms moving through Michigan. In my area we had a bad storm on Wednesday morning with a tornado, lots of thunder and lightening, and damage to buildings just a few blocks from here. But not the extreme flooding further north .At least the temps have dropped from the near 80's we had earlier, but we are very wet. The ground is saturated but I am high enough we don't have to worry about flooding. Closer to the Huron River that is an issue. We had a dry fall and winter but have made up for it, which is good. But hopefully we can dry out soon. Trees are slowly budding out, still have flowers but the storms and heat have reduced bloom time for magnolias, bloodroots and other spring bloomers. Birds continue active at feeders.
