Past few days brought .23", the first precip in nearly 3 weeks. Garden and lawn watering have been necessary, which is almost unheard of in May here (the wettest time of year). Wildflowers are mostly blooming a month early due to unusually warm temps. With nothing in the week long forecast, have to call it severely dry (although the US Drought Monitor says we are not in drought. I don't know how far back they look. Oct-Dec were really wet).
