| Went hiking at Interstate Park on Sunday. Creeks that normally are full in the spring were either completely dry or very low flow. The St. Croix River seemed a little low, but it is controlled by the dam here. Trails that are often muddy, were hard packed and dry. No farming has started yet, but the earliest spring ephemeral flowers are blooming (bloodroot, hepatica). Lots of activity from birds and squirrels at our heated water station. No puddles for them to drink from. |

| Station rainfall at mid-month (April 1-15) was 1.79" or very close to the NOAA normal for the period. March however, was very dry at 1.65" or ~50% of normal. Water year (Oct. 1 to date) deficit at this site remains near 3 inches (-2.96"), or 86% of NOAA normal for the period.
The long-term deficit is still showing up in local streamflows with USGS gage on the Roanoke River at Roanoke where 7-day flow as of 4/14/25 was 279 cfs or the 22nd percentile of all flows for the date (63% of median) with stages falling and in the Below Normal category. This is an improvement from two weeks ago (6th percentile) but still a concern. Carvins Cove local water supply reservoir as of 4/15 was at -0.7 feet below full pond (98.2% capacity) a -0.4 ft. change in the past two weeks.
The US Drought Monitor (USDM) valid as of 4/10/25 continued to show D0 or Abnormally Dry conditions over nearly all of western and central VA. Will keep local Condition in the Mildly Dry category. April temperatures to date (1-15) are running +1.5F with several wide swings. Spring is in full bloom with heavy pollination. My last CM report until end of May so will see how things go. |

| Although Southern Wisconsin had a snow drought this year, we have had adequate moisture. March and April stand at 5.47", which brought ditches, marshes, frog ponds and sloughs to normal levels. Year to date I had 6.72" which is normal, water year 1.97" above normal of 12.97". There is good surface moisture, and a few farmers are doing spring tillage. Things are greening up slowly and there is a high wildfire danger when it is dry. The Baraboo River has dropped to a little below normal. It is not muddy for outdoor construction. |
