No rain fell this week prior to sunset Saturday, then only paltry rain Saturday evening as thunderstorm downpours skirted around. June ended with 2.49" (normal 5.31) and marked the eleventh consecutive month of deficient precipitation. Even the twelfth month, July 2025, delivered low-end normal with its majority coming prior to the 4th. As those heavy rains a year ago aged off, the running 365-day count plummeted to 32.81", which is now much below the previous running 365-day count in 43 and a half years of record of 35.17" from 11 August 1998 to 10 August 1999. And this is 20 inches below the 1991-2020 30-year average of 52.79. Therefore, this drought has become historic. Many annual plants have stopped growing or died unless manually watered or irrigated liberally. Most grass has become dormant. And any water has evaporated rapidly under scorching sun and high heat which included four days of triple-digit maximum actual temperatures. Local streams continue very low. Any condition category beyond Severely Dry such as Extremely Dry would now apply.
