| Ground is saturated from the rainfall from 02/19, plus the recent snow melting. When I pushed in ground stakes (and even lag bolts that I mistakenly bought; I'm not affixing to concrete) to mount my gauge and weather station, I could do so by hand with ease. They also come out very easily and I was worried it wasn't secure enough since I can push the tripod mount and it'll tip while the stakes lift. |

| I am still calling it moderately dry because we just have a little snow cover the soil beneath is very dry and ponds are dry.The grey partridges for example are struggling in the cold as there is not enough snow to burrow in. |
