General:  Weather remains mild. We had .47" of rain in May, compared with a 6-year average of 1.43" (sd = .68).  This is about -1.5 sd from the norm. We're still listed as severe drought.  The rains we had on May 30 and 31 really helped, for sure, and things are greening up nicely.  Pollinators appreciate the appearance of wildflowers.
Agriculture:  Definitely improved.  The mustard crop is blooming (it is really a beautiful sight: see the attached image), and the wheat looks good by my eyes (maybe a little blue...drought).
Energy: Clearly in strong production phase of the year.  We created 77.22 kWHR yesterday and only used 22.95 kWHR (no AC, no heater).  It's the sweet spot for energy creation by solar.
Fire: High risk, of course.  There was a fire in Fort Hall yesterday that filled the valley with smoke.  Strong winds didn't help.
Plants/wildlife:  Many more butterflies than last week, though still very few ants or beetles.  Some wasps/yellow jackets, but not many.  The wetlands that the Bannock County road crew destroyed a few weeks ago is drying up, of course.   The beavers appear to have either abandoned it, or the crews killed them.
Water: Severe shortage, of course.  We are way down for the year (14.88" so far this year, and we expect 18.9" for the water year).
