Station Number: KS-LN-6
Station Name: Blue Mound 5.1 N

Scale Bar: Near Normal
Description:
Hot and humid and typical for July. This specific area missed two thunderstorm clusters that went north and produced multiple inches of rain, so far for July we've received only .63 as of 7/12. We are drying out from the generous rains of the previous months.  For the month of June we received 6.51" of rain, which is 1.48 above normal. For the months of April and May, we received 7.7 and 5.39" respectively, so for the three month (Apr-Jun) period we were 5.45" above normal. Ponds and creeks looking good. There may be a transition to dry conditions but time will tell. Winter wheat was harvested in our area with many of the fields still wet in low lying areas. Conditions for growing are good but we could use a pop-up thunderstorm to give some rain to the grass and crops - none in the forecast for the next 10 days - the rain pendulum has swung to dry once again. We need another 3.63" of rain by the end of July to stay in the average.
