Station Name: Cedar Rapids 2.1 NW
Report Date: 7/5/2026
Submitted: 7/05/2026 1:02 PM
Scale Bar: Near Normal
Description:
D0 still remains.  drought.gov is not currently running at the time I finish this report.  Received 1.10 of rain thus far in the first week of July.  Full mowing was required.  The heat from last week, as intolerable as it was, most seemed to handle it safely.  AC and Fans needed.  Extra hydration was required.  External screen doors and internal sliding deck door difficult to close due to increase in humidity.  One screen door needed repairs as it got stuck and would not close due to humid conditions.  Chipmunks, squirrels, deer, rabbits, birds, mosquitoes and lightning bugs were still witnessed.  Lightning bug activity is still on the increase.  Ants are seemingly not to be a problem as we end the week.  Key events this week were the high temps, dew points, humidity, and flash flooding events across the State.  More chances for rain in the forecast, so stay Weather Aware Everyone : ) : ) 1:02PM 7/5/2026
