It's early January 2026... What is the current condition of your landscape? CoCoRaHS Condition Reports

Have you ever submitted a “Condition” report?  Has it been a while since you've filed one?  It is oh-so-quick and easy!  Try one today.

Basically, it’s a chance for you to give the nation an ongoing “what’s the condition of my landscape?” overview. Is it very dry? . . very wet? . . . or several steps in between? We have a sliding scale bar covering seven categories: “Severely Dry - Moderately Dry - Mildly Dry - Near Normal - Mildly Wet - Moderately Wet - Severely Wet” that you'll find easy to use. You also have a place to describe how these dry, normal, or wet conditions are affecting you, your livelihood, your activities, etc.

Please take a look at our “Condition Monitoring Webpage” and click on the reporting guide. It’s simple to follow, and filing a report is very easy. 

During the next couple of days, if you have a free moment, “try filing a condition report”. You’ll be helping a great many people by doing so, and your information will be reviewed regularly by the authors of the US Drought Monitor. In fact, if you can file a report once a week on a Saturday or Sunday, that would be ideal, but as always, feel free to file one whenever you are able.

Thanks for taking the time to read this message and for being part of our precipitation-measuring team!

A Big Thank You for Making This Year's Fundraiser an Overwhelming Success!

Thanks to all of our 2,984+ donors for making this year's fundraiser a success! At 4:39 PM EST (Sunday, January 11th), a donor from Glenburn, Maine, made a donation, putting us over our $300,000 goal... Wow, amazing... bingo, we reached our goal!

We'll keep the fundraiser website open for another week, and you can check back from time to time to view the campaign scoreboard and see where we end up once all the mailed-in gifts are counted.

With our gratitude, all of us at CoCoRaHS Headquarters!
