| Mild to start the week with two systems moving through mid week bringing some much needed rain and the most snow this season (but not much) and very cold temperatures afterwards. The high was 56° last Saturday, which was the high of the week, and temperatures stayed in the 50's before the first system arrived on Wednesday. The first system was all rain with .18 inches falling. The second system followed quickly after and was all snow. .36 inches of melted snow fell and 1.9 inches of snow. That was the total snow for the week with .54 inches of rain/melted snow for the week. About an inch of snow remains on the ground. Temperatures turned much colder after the storm departed with a high of only 28° on Friday. A low of 12° was recorded this morning, Saturday, which is the coldest temperature this season. It was windy at times this week but nothing very strong. The Potentilla is budding out. By far, the earliest ever but expect the buds to die back with the cold temperatures that came later in the week. Saw seven robins in the crabapple tree eating crabapples and what looked like a Ladder-backed Woodpecker also eating in the tree. No other wildlife seen. |

ENERGY - Not much of a relief from last week. Our temperatures are averaging 5° to 10° above normal for night and day times.

| Over the week we had a lot of cloudy, damp and foggy weather with some surprisingly warm temps considering it is January. For the week a total of 0.60" of precip from rain including a trace from snow was recorded locally. Hopefully drier, deeper soils will benefit. Anyhow, it seems near normal soil conditions remain for now with waterways near normal and looking fairly good. On the bright side, the days have gotten longer with noticeably later sunsets, when the sun is visible. Meanwhile, the ground is bare for the time being and area lawns are surprisingly green. Wildlife remains pretty quiet although roadkill unfortunately continues to occur. Saw a bald eagle this week that was trying to pick up what looked to be a dead rabbit off the road. It was a chance to see our national bird up pretty close and as usual it was quite majestic. |

Conditions have remained the same since the last update from last week with the area seeing some beneficial and measurable precipitation in the form of frozen and liquid over this past week and several weeks prior. The area is currently considered moderately dry (Moderate Drought) which has remained the same since the last update due despite the snowpack melting occurred for snowmelt to infiltrate into the groundwater late this week. The sump pump has been pumping periodically ever since January 6th, 2026-January 10th, 2026 and still pumping showing that the ground is becoming moister because this pump hasn’t been pumping much since summer 2025. Evergreen plants such as Boxwoods and the Red Twig Dogwood along with Arborvitae shrubs in the backyard are doing OK due to some beneficial rain and snow falling this week.

| Our first rainfall event of 2026 occurred this week with a storm total of 0.18" inches of precipitation. While this was not a long duration rainfall event, it has somewhat improved the moisture in the topsoil. It is my hope that we can add additional rainfall events to this one to help replenish the soil moisture that we have lost during our recent drought. Next, while most of our plants and trees remain dormant, there was some plant growth that occurred in patches with the various species of plant seedlings in our yard. Lastly, area wildlife has been active with coyotes once again howling at night, various bird species flying about, and various flying insects flying about too. |

| Only 0.32” of gauge catch this week, but conditions remain near normal for early January. Freezing temperatures over the last few weeks has caused the Pascoag Reservoir to freeze over. Last Sunday the ice was thick enough for several ATVs to be out riding along the edges, but no ice fishermen were tempted to go out as there were likely still thin spots further out. Warm temperatures this week will likely melt a lot of the ice. There was a group of 4 Bald Eagles fishing at the edge of an open area in the ice this week. Quite the sight. Typical winter birds like crows, grackles, chickadees and blue jays have been busy as well.
