Condition Monitoring Report  
Station Number: IA-WR-5
Station Name: Hartford 1.0 E
Report Date: 4/28/2024
Submitted: 4/28/2024 8:59 AM
Scale Bar: Moderately Dry
Description:
One point four two this past week of rain with a little over an inch on Friday. That would be the most daily rainfall since late June 2023. So far this month, two point three. Temperatures averaged 2.7 degrees above normal. Still holding it at moderately dry until we get some decent rain totals over a couple of days. All the heavy rain is falling south and east of us. Interesting weather day Friday with the tornadoes zooming around on my wife's birthday. Cell phones going off at the restaurant in Des Moines for tornado warning gave people a start. Pays to have a weather app with velocity data. Otherwise, grass has greened up rapidly the past week with nearly all trees have or getting close to leafing out. Fields to my north were planted this past week with large fields to my south to be done yet. Bass are jumping around in the pond.
