Calling it “Moderately Dry” overall despite the recent rain. Gone for a week, but per the neighbors, it appears that the 0.89” total for the week must have mostly occurred yesterday/last night. The lawn seems to confirm this, as when we returned home there was standing water 1/4-1/2” deep, even on our very sandy soil. An hour or two later, all the water was absorbed. This standing water happens in our yard very infrequently. While driving home, I-95 roadside grass has large brown/bare patches from Walterboro until we exited at Alcolu near Manning. Some roadside shrubs and bushes to about 6 feet tall were brown, withered and appeared to be dead. As vegetation immediately around them was a dull green (compared to their dark brown), it doesn’t appear that these bushes were sprayed. Several swamps along SC 462 near Hendersonville, SC showed dry conditions and dry/brown saw palmettos. Some young corn to about 3 feet high was turning brown and withered. SC Forestry app shows 51 wildfires scattered across the state. Local non-irrigated lawns looking dry and grey. Mosquitos out in abundance. From Data Explorer: July total: 0.89”. Yearly total: 12.91” (-11.10”/51% NOAA normal. Last 30 days: 1.45” (NOAA normal: 9.99”); Last 90 days: 6.87” (NOAA normal: 16.70”.
