| Our prolonged hot and dry weather pattern continued this week with no rainfall observed. The overall lack of rain has contributed to many of our trees leaves of wilting on some trees, and turning yellow and brown on many other trees to. I also noticed yesterday the leaves on some trees were falling off the trees just as if we were in the autumn season. Also the soil remains sandy with very little if any topsoil moisture observed. Lastly, area wildlife seems to be more active in the morning and during the evening. |

| With only 0.19” of rain this week conditions are near normal for mid August. The Pascoag Reservoir is down to 9’0” and trickling over the spillway. Trails at Sprague Farm are very dry and streams are still slightly flowing which is typical for this time of year. Lots of mushrooms had popped up along the trails with the rains in July but are starting to shrivel up with the dryness over the last couple of weeks. Lots of activity from crows and mallards and hummingbirds are still frequent visitors to the feeder. Boating, fishing, kayaking and paddle boarding remain popular on the lake. Fire danger posted at George Washington state campground remains Low. |

| For week of 9-15 Aug: (13.5+ 0+ 0+ 0+ 0+ 1.5+ 0.5)= 15.5mm. Mildly dry. High's: +25C to +29C Hx +37C; Low's: +19C to +14C; Wind: Mostly calm, any wind to V 10km/hr; Dew: every AM except Mon 10th. This week cooled a bit after Heat Warning ended night of the 10th, Mon. It had been so hot. The Hx lessened and it was bearable to be outdoors. The precip that we did get was always on the edge of a weather system. No thunder cells here. Thank goodness for morning dew. The deer have begun their grazing rotation. We often won't see them for a week. Typical for Aug. No signs of other wildlife, pretty quiet. Creeks and streams are low. Tourism, on the other hand, is strong and steady. Lots of RV's, quads, motorcycles. NS Power Overhead work continues. Preps underway toward back to school--that came fast! Mid-Aug, where did that time go?! In a few weeks, yellow buses will be back. Meanwhile, hoping for a little more rain. |
