| Station has received a solid amount of rain during this months reporting period. 11 of 18 days thus far have had measurable rain, including the past five straight days. This has definitely relieved drought conditions in this part of the state. Grass and landscaping are lush, green and growing. Seasonal flowers are vibrant and healthy. Vegetable gardens are producing cherry tomatoes. Soils are wet, but draining appropriately follwing storms. Creeks had flooded some yesterday,but are returning to normal today. The moisture is good for fire prevention during upcoming Holiday Fireworks. Wooded uplands are normal, lowlands are a bit wetter than last year. Amphibians are present in noticeable numbers, fireflies are present, mosquitoes not yet a nuisance. Bird counts are normal and variety of species is good. By most measurables, water levels are near or slightly above normal for this station. One concern is larger trees seem to be vulnerable to toppling at the base during wind events due to moist soils. Wind and flash floods would be my primary weather concerns next week. Temperatures have been normal, with high humidity due to rain. Air conditioning has not had to run constantly. There is zero fire hazard at this station. |

| So far I have only had to mow my field twice this year. Usually it is 4-5 times by this time. There is still some green in it with 30% of it brown. Lawn is taking an enormous amount of water to turn it green after a very dry spring. |

General Awareness Agriculture Fire Plants & Wildlife Water Supply & Quality
|
| Rainfall for the week was 0.96 inches. Though it may seem that would make a significant difference, the deficit is over 15 inches and the rainfall only moistened the very top layer of the soil. Stream flows are very low with small streams drying up. Trees are shedding leaves and needless and all plants are stressed. Burn bans and water restrictions remain in place. Crops are deteriorating. |
