Mildly dry – I am ashamed to report that we squeaked in with .07 of rain Saturday night. Dry conditions persisted since last significant rain on 5/26. Before that last significant rain was 5/10.

	Soil is dry down 18 inches. Lawns green but drying out resulting in less frequent mowing. Garden requires watering but rain barrels are empty. Streams running at seasonal levels. Mulberry slowly leafing. Peonies blooming. Vegetable farmers harvesting early crops, tilling and planting. Crop corn growing well. Great weather for farmers to make first cutting hay. Couple of turkeys seen.

	NYC Reservoirs near normal at 97.2% of capacity compared to normal of 99.1%. Drier conditions reflected in lowered inventory of water. Consumption is normal at 1.06 billion gallons for the week.
