| This drought is becoming pretty scary! Between the lack of moisture and the constant huge winds we keep having, the air is so full pf particulates that my husband and I are constantly sneezing and sniveling from terrible dust and allergies to it all. I’ve had to do deep watering for the second time in a month to keep gardens alive. We continue to worry about fire danger put here I our desaicated grassland area, and at time I wonder whether we should remove the shelterbelt of junipers that are only about 30’ from our house and now overtopping the roof height! Ski areas are crying for lack of snow in much of Colorado. Not sure yet whether yesterday’s mountain snowstorm amounted to much. |

| Partly sunny and cold with moderate winds and snow, then cloudy and cold overnight with snow and light winds. The high temperature was around twenty four degrees, and the low around seven degrees Fahrenheit. Songbirds are eating a feederful almost every day. The local intermittent stream and nearby trout stream are flowing at Winter levels. Some streams are difficult to cross with ice build up. |

| Rainfall for the week was just a trace. Stream flows dropped off some and the soil remains very dry. It is very fortunate that most plant life is dormant. |

| [Mon 12/01/25 – Wed 12/31/25, rural Central Oregon High Desert]
December precipitation measured a few “traces” over 3.51”, of which all but 0.04” occurred between 12/15 and 12/26. It came with the atmospheric rivers that primarily affected northwestern Oregon and Washington, albeit this location was only along the banks (the edges) of the systems. The rains and rain-mixed-with-snow were sufficient to saturate the soil up to a seemingly typical level for the end of December. There has been an obvious lack of snow, to wit: the first “measurable” snow (0.5”) of this Water Year appeared the morning of Thu 12/18.
This month has been relatively warmer than normal at this site. There has been no sub-0°F daily lows and the lowest temp was 7°F. The average low for the month was 24°F and the average high was an unusually warm 47°F. The most notable observation at this site is that the winter vegetables in the (unheated) greenhouse are thriving and producing daily salad and dinner greens … at the end of December! In all past 15 years, 90-100% of everything (except Miner’s Lettuce) was either dormant or dead by the first week of December due to cold. The number of trees (Lodgepole and Jack Pine) on the property that appear sunburned and/or drought-stressed has increased since last spring’s observation – a concern especially for those near the home that may need to be removed for posing a hazard.
