7/5/2026  AR-PL-1 ARPolk Near Normal General Awareness
Conditions are near normal for the time of year. We received 0.35” of rainfall this week and 1.11” in the last two weeks. Temperatures have been in the mid to upper 80s most days and mainly sunny. Plants and crops are growing well and many local farmers were able to cut and bale their hay this week. The vegetables are doing great and producing many tomatoes cucumbers and beans. Soil moisture is still adequate but declining from the wetness of a couple weeks ago. The nearby stream is flowing still but levels have fallen this week. There is no fire danger at this time.  View

General: It's pretty normal heat right now, and normal precipitation for July. We expect almost 1/2", and we're already at .04" in these early days of July. Agriculture: The mustard and grain crops are doing fine. The little dab of rain we got last week was welcome, for sure. Energy: This is a high production period. Yesterday we produced 96.42 kWHR and only used 27.14 kWHR. As we look at our electric bill, for this all-electric house, we realize that we only have to pay for utilities 3 months out of the year. A true secondary benefit is that, right now, the utilities around the country are instituting rolling brown-outs because of heat and fire risk due to global warming, and having solar means that during the day we'll have access to energy. Fire: risk is high. Plants/wildlife: Birds are still nesting, though some have finished. We still have some butterflies, and the bees are having a field day on our milk weed. We're seeing a lot of plant drying now (normal) increasing fire risk, of course. We have a couple of deer who have taken up summer residence down in our scab region. Water: We're, of course, dry for the year. Many farmers in the Snake River plain are not planting due to lack of access to irrigation water. Fortunately, our neighbors use dry land farming techniques so aren't susceptible to ground water restrictions.  View

After the start to a hot and humid week with Extreme Heat Warnings, the week ended with lots of heavy rainfall with some severe weather. The last three days have seen 2.12" of rainfall, which replenished the moisture that was evaporated by the extreme heat. All To-Date readings are on the plus side of NOAA Norm. There is some standing water in some fields that are low and prone to that. Nearby corn loved the hot and humid conditions and has continued to get tall but does not appear to be tasseling out yet. Beans look good and my garden is flourishing with tomatoes turning and a plentiful crop of green beans to pick. Also cut a couple nice heads of broccoli. Area rivers are on the rise with the rainfall but are not expected to flood. There is a slight chance of rain today, otherwise the rest of the week looks mostly dry with summerlike heat which will allow wet areas to dry out.  View

A grand total of 0.01” in the preceding week, though this morning’s catch of 0.37” is definitely encouraging, especially given the forecast for early this week. Were it not for the overnight rainfall would have switched ratings to moderately dry – will hold mildly dry for now. Meantime, the area still shows improvement (particularly lawns) from the 6/23-6/24 event. That said, without drip irrigation the veggie garden would be a sorry sight. Beehives arrived on the bogs a few days ago. Pond level is normal; wildlife activity appears normal, and our one remaining cygnet continues to grow and appears to be in robust health. Currently stand at 94% of average for the water year to date.  View

Barely one inch of rain in the past two weeks has done little to help our drought. The US Drought page isn't working today but the Massachusetts state drought page says we are in L2-significant drought. Streams and ponds are low. Most local towns have total water use bans. Lawns are in various stages of brown while other vegetation seems to be OK for now. Lots of finches have been visiting our feeder. Fox, coyote and deer are also regular visitors to the yard. We haven't heard of any significant wildfire problems.  View

2.59" of precip over the past 40 days in combination with some hot dry stretches have left this location in a moderate dry on the verge of severely dry. We are 3+" in deficit for this timeframe. Most of the storm chances have either petered out prior to getting here or gone south. This seems to be typical over the past 6 years. Warm weather threats of rainfall tend to miss, vs during the colder weather systems. The fire threat will be high if we get a period of low DPs and high winds. The ponds level is lower than the average level for this time of the year. Grasses are stressed and burning.  View

For the week ending 7/5/2026, conditions were SEVERELY WET. The 7-day cumulative precipitation total of 1.88 inches was 141%% above the 13-year (2009-2022) average of 0.78 inches and in the “moderately wet” range; the 30-day total of 10.09 inches was 195% above the expected 13-year average of 3.42 inches and in the “severely wet” range; and the 90-day total of 16.36 inches was 60% above the expected 13-year average of 10.25 inches and in the “moderately wet” range. The 7-day water balance was +0.93 inches (1.88 inches of rain minus 0.95 inches of evapotranspiration). There were 3 days of measurable precipitation, with a maximum of 1.19 inches on the 4th. Temps ranged from 91 F (on the 39th & 1st) to 51 F (on the 3rd, 4th, & 5th), with average Hi/Lo temps of 88/74 F (+15/+16 relative to last week). Precipitation Trends—June to End: 8.21 inches (up 4.14 inches, 202% of PRISM Normal); Year to Date (2026): 29.53 inches (up 9.43 inches, 147% of PRISM Normal). A week of searing heat and humidity. Almost as suddenly as they made an appearance, fledgling Baltimore Orioles have become extremely scarce. Where do they go? An adult female Wood Duck continues to be present with 7 or 8 well-grown young. As a result of recent heavy rains, the level of Crescent Lake has risen above its banks, with the “normal” shoreline now submerged under 2 ½ feet of water, making our dock unusable.  View

Current conditions are moderately wet, which is a reversal from a very hot week. The National Weather Service issued extreme heat warnings during the first four days of the week due to temperatures reaching the 90s and high humidities pushing heat values into triple digits. Electricity demands strained the power grids and burn bans went into effect. Local beaches were full and campgrounds reached capacity. Overnight Thursday into Friday, rain arrived but yielded to sunshine and heat during the day. Friday afternoon a severe thunderstorm arrived which emptied the crowded beaches and chased boaters off of Lake Michigan. This storm caused numerous tree failures which closed roads and interrupted power. At least 400,000 Michigan customers were without power. Intermittent rain has followed but with warm temperatures. The gauge catch captured 0.99 inches of rain for the week, all since early Friday morning. It is currently wet with puddling. Soils are wet at the surface. Hess Lake remains high. Local corn has exceeded the “knee-high by the Fourth of July.” Lawns and overall landscape are lush and green. The first black raspberries are beginning to ripen. Unfortunately, the warm and wet conditions appear to have awaken our biting insects such as mosquitoes and deer flies.  View

June is the wettest month so far this year with total Rainfall: 4.93”, YTD: 13.79”. It’ really helped keep things flourishing. Really the only things that need attention are potted plants and perhaps any new trees and shrubs. The only negative thing is the intense heat and humidity that had been stifling for several days. Forecast: Hot with Temps in the upper 80’s most of the week. Several chances of Thunderstorms early in the week followed by Partly Sunny skies. Winds increasing and Humidity dropping.  View

Much needed rain and cool weather earlier this week--over 1" following a very dry previous month. Even the grass greened up. But the cool temps (highs in the 50s) are now gone and it's hot and dry--normal late July weather. High of 88 yesterday. There was a large 400-acre cheatgrass wildfire yesterday on some degraded former grazing land, although nothing except cheatgrass is really dry enough to burn right now.

The spring/early summer months of 2026 have been extremely dry, resulting in "crunchy" grass and periods of dormant (no-growth) conditions given the high heat and lack of appreciable rainfall. We have lived at this location for 15 years and this is the latest first-cut of our grass (July 5th) since we moved here in late 2010. Area yards appear brown, low growth. There is a swampy freshwater pond adjacent to my property that is completely dry. I am surprised more water restrictions have not been put into place for western Carteret County and am concerned that fire weather conditions will be an issue for the rest of summer into the fall months.  View

Rainfalls: This week 0.48”, last week 0.99” . . It was a hot, sunny and dry week except for the storms of Friday night. The 0.48” of rain from these storms was quickly absorbed by the ground. Even with this rain, the scale for the week at this station slid from mildly wet to near normal. Trees and plants are showing signs of stress from the heat and no rain. The vegetable garden and flower beds needed watering throughout the week. A major thunderstorm rolled through late Saturday afternoon, although it remained South of this location.

No rain fell this week prior to sunset Saturday, then only paltry rain Saturday evening as thunderstorm downpours skirted around. June ended with 2.49" (normal 5.31) and marked the eleventh consecutive month of deficient precipitation. Even the twelfth month, July 2025, delivered low-end normal with its majority coming prior to the 4th. As those heavy rains a year ago aged off, the running 365-day count plummeted to 32.81", which is now much below the previous running 365-day count in 43 and a half years of record of 35.17" from 11 August 1998 to 10 August 1999. And this is 20 inches below the 1991-2020 30-year average of 52.79. Therefore, this drought has become historic. Many annual plants have stopped growing or died unless manually watered or irrigated liberally. Most grass has become dormant. And any water has evaporated rapidly under scorching sun and high heat which included four days of triple-digit maximum actual temperatures. Local streams continue very low. Any condition category beyond Severely Dry such as Extremely Dry would now apply.  View

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY to all! Per SC Forestry app: 36 wildfires across SC. Both the US Drought Monitor and the SC Climate Office show this area in a “D3-Severe Drought” condition. 0.11” rain this past week (9.99” NOAA normal). 2.00” rain in June (4.75” NOAA normal). Non-irrigated lawns showing more stress with brown/bare spots. River birch trees dropping a lot of yellow and brown leaves. Local roadside ditches/swamps now dry again or mostly so. Local retention ponds either dry or very low. Local pastures and cornfields showing stress with wilted leaves on young corn. One local pond is so low that water is almost to the bottom of the stumps and lily pads are turning yellow and brown. No mandatory/voluntary water use restrictions here yet, so not moving to “Severely Dry”. On a 1 July Poinsett State Park hike there were many squirrels and lizards (red headed/blue tailed skinks and anoles) about, along with very many spider webs occupied by different spider types. Hopefully this will help reduce the very plentiful mosquitos in the park and at home. The smaller park streams have dried up (see attached photo), and Hart Creek is definitely at a reduced flow (attached photo with the water/light brown sand). Shanks Creek (the main creek that feeds the park’s lake) is steadily running lower, but it’s fed by Christmas Mill pond and it’s associated springs. The cottonmouths really seem to love Shanks Creek. The main spillway is running low (attached photo showing exposed rocks). The past few days here have been very hot and humid, but very dry. From Data Explorer: For July: 0.00” (NOAA normal 0.68”); (-0.68”/0.0% NOAA normal). For the year: 12.91” (NOAA normal 22.66”) ;(-9.75”/57% NOAA normal). Last 30 days: 1.45” (NOAA normal: 9.99”). Last 90 days: 6.92” (NOAA normal: 16.70”).  View
