Conditions gotten drier since the last update from last week with the area seeing little measurable precipitation in the form of liquid over this past week and the area is still remaining drought free. The area is currently considered near normal and conditions had gotten drier and the ground is turning drier since the last update due to the area receiving an abundance of precipitation in the form of rain since there has been a lot of measurable rainfall last month in April and also in the month of March and this had caused the area to receive an abundance of moisture the area had received in the past, but the grass is starting to show brown patches in the front yard. The sump pump hasn’t been pumping very much during the entire week due to the ground still moist below the surface from more soaking rain the area experienced this week and over the past couple of months. Outdoor activities have been excellent with mild and dry weather lasting the entire week despite (scattered rain showers and thunderstorms Tuesday evening through Tuesday night and Thursday evening) and good weather for walking on trails this week and local creeks and streams water levels are still holding at low levels along with some seasonably cooler than normal air in the environment in the beginning of the week (Sunday-Monday) with temperatures becoming warmer than average for the rest of the week (Monday-Saturday). The area experienced a mix bag of above and below average temperatures most of the week with temperatures warming above average by the middle of the week into the early weekend (Monday-Saturday). Furnace has been off and not needed for the entire this week and the air conditioner hasn’t been needed until mid-week this week (Tuesday-Saturday) to cool the house due to a mix bag of the slightly warmer and slightly cooler than average temperatures prevailing over the area earlier in the week due to temperatures warming above average (as much as 14 degrees Fahrenheit above average (Tuesday-Saturday) and as much as 3 degrees below average for Sunday-Monday. The ground has finally dried up and become more solid and not squishy this week and the drainage area in the backyard has no standing water. The grass is still remaining green and vibrant with all the moisture that had fallen over the past couple of weeks, but some isolated brown patches are starting to emerge in the front yard along with leaves on the trees approaching full foliage. The front yard needed to be hand mowed once this week along with vegetation such as Dogwoods and trees in the backyard are doing good, but mowing the backyard was easier due to the ground becoming drier and less muddy and Boxwoods needed trimming to remove dead vegetation. So far, the total precipitation at this station for the month of June is currently below average.
