Some improvements this week with 0.38” of rainfall. This was the first significant rain in a few weeks. The temperatures were hot during this week (100f) but cooler yesterday (86f). Plants/crop growth is still low due to drought but has improved the last couple of days with the rain and cooler weather. The lawn has started to green back up and I’ve been able to quit watering the garden for now. The water body levels are still decreasing but not severely low at this time. Fire danger is moderate currently.  View

Since my last report on 7/11/26 there has been a total of 4.48" of precipitation in July and 2.38"in Aug. Hopeville Pond is back to about normal. Water supply quality and quantity are good for human consumption. There are still a number of animal prints and various birds. The farmers have planted their fields. The grass has returned to green and is growing. The campers are starting to hang out at their camp sites at the campground across the pond. Since the start of fishing season there have been more fishermen each day and more people on the water.  View

A drier week with only 0.30" of rain. All To-Dates are still on the plus side of NOAA Norm. Severe weather forecast for today and tomorrow, but high heat also returns during this period with a Heat Advisory already in place. Chances of rain in the forecast for everyday this week. Fingers crossed for some soaking rains. Grass continues to remain green and growing with a need for mowing every 4th day. Crops continue to look good and are maturing.

Only 0.03” in the preceding seven days – in fact, that’s our total for August to date. Will stick with “near normal” for now, living large off of July’s bounty – but the medium range models aren’t exactly promising and will probably need to switch to mildly dry next report. Things are growing pretty well – decorative and veggie plantings are doing nicely (some augmented with drip hoses) and native species and grasses look pretty good. Starting to see some signs of the shorter days in the veggie garden, and there are a few tinges of autumn color here and there. Pond is at control depth and wildlife activity is normal.  View

The effects of the heavy rain received at the end of July are finally starting to fade. The vernal pools that had been refilled are starting to dry out. Water levels in Bassett Brook and the Hoosic river have dropped but are still somewhat above normal for late summer. Lawns are green and growing fast without the usual August brown patches. Goldenrod, Joe Pye Weed, Milkweed and Queen Ann's Lace are abundant in the fields. Lots of mushrooms in the woods. Gardens are well watered and producing well. Hiking and biking trails on Mt Greylock still have multiple wet sections. Evenings are alive with the buzz and trill of late summer insects. Dawns are quieter with fewer birds defending their territories.  View

The drought monitor has upgraded this area to D0 from D1. Some drainage ditches are holding water after being bone dry at the start of the summer.

This week wraps up under near normal conditions. The gauge catch captured 0.12 inches of rain but the humidity has been oppressively high throughout the week and temperatures have never gotten beyond the mid-80s. Cloud cover has also been common. Surface soils are starting to dry and lawns are still mostly lush and green. Local agriculture remains robust which is spilling over into farmers’ markets and roadside produce stands. The beaches have been busy but not as much as the prior weeks and a variety of outdoor activities remain strong. There seems to be a certain sense that summer, while still strong, has peaked.  View

Have received only an inch or so rain over the last month and a half making for very dry conditions locally. Rain is far below average and is a continuation of a number of dry summers in the last decade. Lake and River levels are low with boaters starting to remove boats and pontoon due to inabilities to access lifts due to the low water. Unirrigated crops are showing stress with browning leaves on corn and curled leaves on beans. Grass is dry and fighting to stay alive. Extreme heat was not helped as July temps have been listed as the fourth hotest since the beginning of monitoring. Have not mowed grass for 3 weeks now. Invasive weeds are even struggling. No significant rain in forecast.  View

No measurable precipitation this past week. Last Sunday was a nice and unusual 82 degrees for a high. Each day after that this past week was 90 or above (back to normal). Plenty of sunshine and the landscape is taking on that late summer dark green. Stress areas have appeared in the yard and some leaf drop has occurred on area trees. Crops are maturing quite nicely with corn harvest set to begin this coming week. Still irrigating quite a few acres of soybeans, but many of them are done too.  View

.17" of rain this week brings the month's total to .24" and the year's since Jan. 1 to 3.08". Very little fruit production this year, and no summer garden produce to date. Some tomatoes have set, but no zucchini, and chili peppers haven't blossomed so far. The creek ran well locally and all the way down to the Rio Grande early this week from rain that must have fallen northwest of here, but it was dry again within 1-2 days. Grass is growing at the verge of paved roads and acacias are in bloom in the foothills, but hillsides are still brown. Still seeing a variety of birds in the yard.  View

White Clover, Achillea millefolium, Prunella vulgaris, wild daisies, St. Johnswort, Marshmallow, Soapwort, White Vervain, Horse Nettles and Wild Bergamot flowers are in full bloom. Red Raspberries are almost done ripening, Thimbleberries are beginning to ripen. Walnuts and apples are about 1 inch in diameter. Early corn is 84" - 96" tall, late corn is 50" - 76" tall.

Another 2.89" of rain this week which is 47% of the August monthly average at 29% of the month completed. High RH and mostly moderate winds have limited evaporation. Even after 3 dry days, there is still standing water in a couple of places in the yard. Soil is moist from the surface on down several inches. Peanuts, soybeans and cotton are all doing well, with the exception of very late planted soybeans (after sage) that struggled to germinate in dry soil, then faced severe competition from weeds once the rain came. Corn has done what it is going to do, and harvest should commence in a couple of weeks. Garden plants are growing fine, but tomatoes are still cracking due to excess moisture. Grass requires mowing every week Roadside grass is tall enough to conceal a small deer. Mosquitos and yellow flies are still abundant. I guess the old wives tale that yellow flies disappear after the first big rain in August (2.02" on August 4th) isn't always true.  View

2.93” this week was very helpful. Everything is growing well. We mowed our lawn as much in the last three weeks as we did the whole previous spring and summer. Bird and insect activity has increased notably to pretty much. “normal“ levels. The city of Durham is still under stage two water restrictions. However, I’m still going to put us “near normal“. Durham Reservoir’s are in the northern part of the county where they have been getting less rain. So given the conditions here I’m putting our part of the county as “doing pretty good right now!”  View

We have had some heavy rain events this past week which have contributed to damp conditions. We have not had any flooding or severe weather such as hail. Soil conditions are damp but not wet. Grasses and vegetation are more green than usual for this time in August. With humid conditions returning it feels like the height of summer. Birds have been active in their search for food. Small mammals have been very active as well. Larger mammals such as foxes and deer are also more visible at this time.  View

Rainfalls: This week 1.52”, last week 0.45”. The creek was running at near zero level by midweek but quickly returned to 3” on the gauge with the storms of Friday and Saturday. The grass on the lawn is still very thick, although the overall growth rate has slowed. Some standing water in the typical low spots can be seen after moderate rains. The vegetable garden received some supplemental water midweek but it turns out it really wasn't necessary. I'm putting the week's average at near normal even though the week ended up mildly wet.  View

I am having to water flower pots every day and plants I’ve put in the ground are being watered every other day. I e still lost a milkweed plant and my coral belles and goats look pretty sad. I'm a birder so put fresh water in the birdbath every day - often twice a day. The hummers have found us and empty the one feeder I have out daily. I can see the birds struggling with the heat, but haven’t seen any meet their demise due to the heat and set conditions. it’s hot and dry enough to keep people in their house more than normal here on the lake. There’s a lot to get done with the yearly wood dump we get in our yard, but it’s far too hot with little breeze for relief.  View

Our Hot and dry weather pattern continued this week with no measurable rainfall observed. The overall lack of rainfall is starting to cause some our plants leaves to wilt including some of our local grasses, and some of our trees leaves are wilting too. Also the ground remains sandy and dry this week which I fear is just the beginning of our latest impacts from our developing drought.  View

3.13” rain this past week has put us back to Moderately Dry. US Drought Monitor showing us now in a “D1-Moderate Drought” status. SC Forestry app shows 9 wildfires, all in the S and E sectors of the state. While this past week’s rain certainly helps, we’re still at an overall deficit. Local roadside swamps and ditches have almost dried up again, even after this week’s abundant rains. Smaller bushes, and some lower limbs on larger trees, appear to have already turned brown and died along local roads (see photo). Local cornfields have patches of dead corn among the green. At Poinsett State Park (and at home in Sumter) mosquitos are swarming after the rain, even with bug spray and the Thermacell running. Poinsett’s main spillway already has dry spots again and the park’s waterfall is back to reduced flow, even after all the rain this week (see photos). Smaller streams appear to have already dried up again. From Data Explorer: August precip: +2.80" : 311% of NOAA Normal. Yearly precip: -9.83" : 66% of NOAA Normal. Last 30 days: 5.81”/NOAA normal: 10.39”. Last 90 days: 12.35”/NOAA normal: 18.70”.  View
