Still waiting for the monsoon especially after talk of a wet one this year. Still early but nothing looks promising in the near future. Due to the extremely dry conditions, decided to lower the Condition Scale Bar down one notch to the lowest level, "Severely Dry". Another very dry week with no precipitation. It was windy most of the week with a very high fire danger. High temperatures were warm with highs in the 80's. The high of the week was 88° on Friday. Lows started off mild but cooled as the week progressed. The low of the week was 45° on Thursday. The wildland areas are very dry with brown grasses and some green plants with flowers. Saw a robin, hummingbirds, finches, and black birds. Also, saw a garter snake in the pond.
