After 5 of our last 6 months being below noraml in precipitation and leaving us 12" below normal for 2026; We have finnaly had a wet period . From the 7th to the 14th of July we have had rain on 6 of those days and a total of 5.04" of rain . Praise God! That cuts us down from 12 to 10 inches below normal and decending with 14 days to go in the month. The, mostly steady rain, has been very beneficial: filling farm ponds , and raising lake and riovefr levels. Ground water will be helped tremendously and fire and burning watches /warnings  are down to zero. Plants and wildlife are showing relief. Water supply is greatly enhanced.
