Rain fell on 5 days this week resulting in 4.27 inches, with 6/11 collecting 3.03 inches. Water still fills low lying areas and fields, the grass is green again, and plants are growing rapidly. The storm on 6/11 came with gusty winds, lightning and thunder, and electricity off overnight. MTD is 5.86 inches (268% of NOAA 30-yr norm), YTD is 21.62 (135%), and WYTD is 28.27 (120%). Abundant rainfall has given me time off from watering. Photo shows about 2 inches of planter’s headspace filled with water shortly after the heavy rain stopped on 6/11.
