| Well has gone dry. Winter wheat has died with out heading out so no harvest. What little moisture has fallen has evaporated quickly and left no moisture to plant a spring crop on. Irrigation canal had one run of water and is dry now. Garden was watered to get plants to come up but no rain and high water cost will probably cause abandonment. |

| Well, after an almost record dry May, the month of June started out just as dry until Friday when 0.71" of rain fell, followed by a very local downpour of 1.48" early this morning. Soil conditions were approaching severely dry but are currently mildly wet thanks to the rains we received yesterday and overnight. Area waterways were decidedly on the low side and dropping but should be looking better today. Trees now look a lot better after this soaking. Area lawns were looking pretty dismal and a dust devil reminiscent of desert climates was working its way across a bare and dry field the other day, really giving our dry condition a sobering appearance. My lawn and garden had been surviving due to regular watering but the soaking rains definitely made a welcome difference. I discovered a bird song app that seems quite accurate and it has been "hearing" birds at dawn and dusk that I didn't even know were around here. And our peewee/flycatchers finally got around to finishing their nest in the same exact spot as last year. Hopefully they will have another successful hatch this year, in about a month. |

| May 25th was the last measurable rain we've had. Garden soil mid May was loamy and nice. Now it is hard to get a shovel through and hard clods come up. I'm watering my plants. Weekly mowing has slowed to over a week. We have a small overflow pond/creek that goes through our farm from the neighborhood. Pond is mud now where earlier creek and pond were with water. Raccoons are into water buckets in the barn knocking them over or muddying them. Doe and fawn plus last season's twin yearlings are seen in alfalfa field, sheep pasture and even our fenced yard. First cutting alfalfa at end of May was good (15 big bales) but we need rain. Wild black raspberries are fruiting. |

| The weekend started out hot and humid, and it was tough working in the yard. After a week of rain and clouds, many plants and I are wilting in the heat and humidity. Feels like 101°F! But I was able to spray herbicides on the lawn since we finally had conditions that were consistent for spraying. Many neighbors tried to rush into cutting the grass, but in some cases, the mowers left ruts and muddy trails behind since the ground was still wet from last week’s rains. My front yard was still wet even though I worked on the drainage all last summer. There was no standing water. It was still too wet to mow. By Monday afternoon, the soil dried out enough so as not to cause ruts when I cut the grass. But I only cut half of the normal height to avoid clumping grass clippings and sun scalding. It rained all around this area during the day on Tuesday, and some areas had thunderstorms. I needed at least a half inch of rain to get the herbicide I spray on Saturday to reach the soil. Late Tuesday evening, a popup shower provided 0.53”, go figure! The rest of the week was mostly uneventful as passing clouds provided some relief from the sun and even added a few drops of rain, but only a trace fell. |

Humidity has tended to decline to the low 20% values in the late afternoons. The ground is drying rapidly and the Piedmont is officially in "severe drought". Farmers are beginning to report that crops need rain and harvests will be affected by the drought. Water rationing plans are in place in nearby Raleigh, Durham and other towns.
