General awareness:  Dry.  We are listed as severe drought, and that is borne out by my numbers:  We've had .05" in May, compared to our 6 year average of 1.626".  Nothing in sight.
Agriculture:  It looks like our neighbors have planted predominantly mustard (if our memory of the small crop of mustard last year is correct).  
Energy:  We're creating about twice as much as we're using.  Created 61.28 kWHR yesterday and used 35.76 kWHR, with heaters on.
Fire:  Fire danger is high.  We're tinder dry.
Plants/wildlife:  The county destroyed the beaver pond again, despite the huge benefits we get from beaver ponds for recharging the water table, and the fact that the pond is used by moose, geese, ducks, and other wildlife constantly.  We haven't seen any activity indicating that the beavers will rebuild, or even that they lived through the backhoe.  Pretty frustrating to the humans who monitor these things.  
Water:  See above.  Pretty dire, frankly.
