 A hot week with monsoon moisture around but not much rain until the end of the week. Highs were in the 90's most days with a high of 94° on Wednesday. The low of the week was 55° on Tuesday and Wednesday. A little rain, .03 inches, fell midweek, with more wetting rains on Friday and Saturday. A total of 1.01 inches fell for the week and will put August above the normal average, even if no more rain falls this month. Some gusty winds during storms but otherwise, no strong winds. The surrounding wildland areas look very green now. Saw garter snakes on several occasions as well as finches and hummingbirds.  View

 We received 0.56” of rainfall this week which helped some with the vegetation for a few days but didn’t do much for the trees or add to water levels like we need. The rain total for the month of August has been 1.13”. Soil moisture at the surface benefited from the rain but is now back to being very dry. Plants are suffering from the lack of moisture and the intense heat. Most of the trees in my yard are brown and many have already dropped their leaves. Water body levels are decreasing very quickly now and most streams are dry as well as some of the smaller ponds. Many livestock farmers are having to feed hay to their animals. Wildfire risk is very high now with all the brown leaves and grass, low humidity and some wind.  View

 A week of some fog, but also some mild, sunny afternoons. The north wind returned for a while yesterday, drying things out. Ocean conditions were favorable for fishing and water sports. Lots of tourists in the area and more will be arriving for the Labor Day weekend and the local festivals. There is a definite sense of Fall coming. Trees are losing leaves and our grape vines are coloring up. The local birds are starting to form their winter flocks.  View

 Since last reported on 08/23/2026, recorded a total of 0.12" of gauge catch. August is about to end with a precipitation total of 0.89" so far. NOAA August normal precipitation is 2.65", and PRISM August normal is 3.67". That is about 30% average of normal precipitation. Most days in August were days with precipitation. However, 11 days had just trace amounts. We had plenty of days with monsoon thunderstorms. But thunderstorms tracked either north or south of our immediate area leaving us with a trace or under 0.05". NOAA drought maps have us in D3 Extreme drought conditions. 63% of El Paso County is in this condition. 31% is under severe drought. The seasonal precipitation outlook is promising with above average precipitation through the end of November. Our grass was trying to make a comeback, but not enough precipitation has occurred, so the grass is going dormant again. Topsoil sample taken today shows dry dusty soil that is difficult to dig. Hummingbirds have departed for the season. Other birds are gathering for the migration south. Observed very young Cottontail in our pine trees. Some of our established Ponderosa Pines are showing signs of drought stress with needles turning yellow. Autumn-like clouds are forming including mountain wave clouds the past few days. Heard the Aspen Acres fire is now 82% contained. With very little precipitation this past week, and soil drying out, have revised the Condition Scale from Mildly Dry to Moderately Dry.  View

 August will most likely finish around 0.90" below normal - 9th month in a row with below normal precip. Lawns have picked up in growth over the past few weeks due to the more consistent rain. It's nice to see fields a bit more green recently - probably won't last long.  View

We are back to normal in this part of Pasco county. Our monthly rainfall through 5pm today is 10.36 inches, monthly normal for August is 9.03". YTD thru Aug 31 is 37.09". We are at 43.73" today.. Other parts of Florida, I can't speak for, but I have two rain gauges and compare mine to nearby Pasco county site, they are accurate.

 August 24 - 30, 2026: no precipitation but 'monsoon' rain patterns in southern and central mountain areas during this past week. Wild fires that have burned millions of acres of valley, foothills, and forest areas this summer are beginning to be brought under control, although new fires continue to be started by lightening and careless land use activities. "Muggy" feel to air at times during the week. Dehimidifier in the 'root cellar' has been pulling gallons of water from the air this week. Plants in the gardens are beginning to 'go by'--flowers on daisys and blackeyed susans are browning, Incredibal hydrangea blooms are now huge but a soft green color rather than white, grapes are ripening along the fence. Oaks along the street in the front are beginning to drop acorns like hail; horse chestnut spikey balls will be falling soon. All these plant and tree responses to this summer's intense and dry heat seem to be weeks ahead of normal. Oak tree acorns should continue to fall until November, for instance, but probably will last only into possibly October. Animals that eat the acorns over the winter will have a sparse supply. In the foothills and mountains, wildlife are already moving to lower elevations looking for food because drought and fires this summer have dried up or burnt their late summer supplies. Many winter range areas in the valleys have burned. This winter may be hard on wildlife because food supplies will be scarce. Water levels in upper Boise River basin reservoirs are rapidly being lowered--Lucky Peak is currently 65% full, Arrowrock 22%, and Anderson Ranch 61%. Seasonal management and conservation releases from Lucky Peak Dam often target winter/early-spring minimum flows are around 220 cfs. Current discharge at the Glenwood Bridge is about 722 cfs, being maintained for irrigation water rights needs and recreational uses. Hot. Dry. No rain.  View

 8-23-26 to 8-30-26: Turf is hard underfoot with minimal give. No puddles in low or sheltered areas. Drain tiles 12 to 18 inches deep are not flowing. Man made and sinkhole ponds are at approximately 85% of capacity. River birch leaf drop is accelerating indicating a decline in soil moisture. Readings from a tensiometer at 18 inches deep in heavy clay soil ranged from 88 cb to 91 cb over the period with a current reading of 91 cb. ETo turf is 1.54 inches at the end of the period resulting in a total ETo turf of 1.07 inches. Total precipitation for the period was 0.11 inches resulting in a deficit of 0.96 inches.  View

We received a trace ( T ) of rain in the past week, 0.04" of rain in the past 2 weeks. Normally that would be a concern, but we are still reaping the benefits of the heavy August rains. Soil moisture is fine, area corn crops and our pastures are doing very well. Garden, flowers, and lawn have not needed supplemental watering since the August rains began. Ranch lake level is steady at 98% of capacity. Last week I reported that we had seen and photographed unidentified game birds and submitted the pictures to the Illinois DNR for identification. We are excited to report that the IDNR has identified them as wild Hungarian Partridges ( AKA Grey Partridges ). They are considered "extremely rare in wild populations across Illinois”, and in the absence of our photographs it would have been thought "highly unlikely to encounter wild coveys in Mercer County, Illinois". I have attached 2 of the 9 pictures that were taken on 08/12/26 by my sister and I.  View

 Rain for the week at this location was 0.25 in. I called it near normal but I think we have a little more moisture than normal for this time of the year. Lawns are still green, pastures still growing. Early predictions at the first of the year showed this area being just on the edge of a drought area but thankfully that has not been the case, Have not talked to any of the neighboring farmers to get their projections on yields. Gardens are done for the year. The wife is starting to take in Her decorations for winter. More rain forecast for the coming week.  View

 Despite receiving around a tenth of an inch this past week, and running 160% of normal for the month, it just doesn't seem that wet. For whatever reason, the topsoil just drys quickly. So, moved the condition back to near normal. Some leaves are starting to turn. Noticed yesterday in a trip east on I80, a few corn and beans fields have started to turn, likely earlier planted fields. Otherwise, summer is hanging on with the return of heat this next week.  View

Ponds <1 ac. dried up. Ponds 1-3 ac. mostly cattails so must a little water. Ponds >3 ac., 2-3 feet below norml levels, shorelines just cattails. The trees, deciduous and coniferous seems to be OK with some new growth. Some accorns on some oaks. Wild apple trees are losing their small, brown apples. The deer and turkeys and others will be dining on them. Same group of adult American turkey hens and two generations of young still visit our bird feeders twice daily! Often many American goldfinches, a pair of cardinals, some chickadees, and nuthatches. Our well-fed Ruby Throated Hummingbirds are still here. No signs that any of the small to medium size blueberry fields have been harvested. No signs of any hay harvested. Were it not for occasional very dense, ocean fog in the mornings and the condensation it would be even dried. In the last 21 days we've received 0.53 inches of actual precipitation.  View

 0.17” in the preceding week; August now stands at a grand total of 0.78” against PRISM average of 3.66”. Year-to-date we’re still more than 2” to the good of YTD average, but August has been remarkably dry and must admit I was hoping for a wet end of the water year; we’ve still got ‘24-‘25’s deficit to overcome, and the main local reservoir isn’t recharging as it has in the past, although the level on this pond is pretty much where it should be. Despite all this, there’s been minimal lawn browning so far. Seasonal color change continues. In the garden, many plants are starting to declare themselves done, although eggplant and pepper plants continue to positively thrive and tomatoes are still producing. Wildlife is active; the buck mentioned last week showed up later in my yard – he’s a gorgeous 8 pointer. Haven’t seen him since.  View

 Most of the showers and storms forecast for last week bypassed us leaving us with less than a half inch of rain for the week. August ends with just over half of our normal rainfall. But you would never know that by looking around. Vegetation growth remains vigorous with no sign of water stress. Lawns remain green and lush, and require mowing every five days; unusual for the end of August. Garden soil retains good moisture and good vegetable production continues. My pond remains full. Leaf litter on the forrest floor remains damp and continues to sprout mushrooms. Bassett Brook and Hoosic flow levels have dropped to the point where the spillway on the old mill dam at Cheshire Harbor has dry sections. But puddles still remain in potholes in dirt and paved parking areas. Hiking and biking trails on Mt Greylock remain mostly dry with the usual damp sections.
