We received 1.05” of rainfall this week and have had 1.38” in the past two weeks. The rain has been helpful to improving the soil moisture but didn’t help much with water levels in streams and water bodies. Temperatures seem normal for the time of year. The little bit of rain has helped with pasture grass growth so most nearby graziers have temporarily stopped feeding hay. Acorns are falling off the oak trees so the deer and squirrels are busy. Medium fire danger is present.  View

Over the past twelve months, I have recorded three months of normal precipitation and nine months of below normal precipitation. Where I am seems to be a donut hole for precipitation, as really none of the more significant rain storms have touched us (and we have zero missing days of observations). We are at 58% of normal for the calendar year, with a deficit of 6.33”. This is showing up in trees, unirrigated yards, and open space. Wells in my neighborhood have run dry. The last significant precipitation we had was in June. Otherwise, all precipitation has been less than 0.1” (with one exception of 0.12” in mid July). Our neighborhood has had the most bear activity we’ve ever year (I’ve lived here 24 years, other neighbors have lived here much longer). We theorize it is because there is no food or water for them in wild lands.  View

I need to go back to Severely Dry after sitting at Moderately Dry for several weeks. My station is at 0 for the month of October (only 5 days, however) and was at 37% of PRISM Normal for September (0.61" against Normal of 1.66"). Year to Date I am at 67% of PRISM Normal and Water Year to Date for 2025-2026 season ending 2026-09-30 I am t 65% of PRISM Normal, so pretty dry. Oddly enough all the local jurisdictions have gone to Stage 1 fire restrictions. Considering the current situation I am very surprised about and would feel more comfortable at Stage 2 restrictions - not my decision though. The landscape is looking like a typical fall, but accelerated by about 2 weeks. Most of the plants are dried up with only a few yarrow still blooming. There are plenty of rosettes in the meadow for next year so maybe if we get a good winter snowpack they will do well. The aspens for the most part are finishing their fall colors with a few exceptions in wetter micro-environments. I am still getting a lot of birds to the birdbaths, but the hummingbirds have finally left, the last one left sometime last week. Ponderosa pines seem to be ok for the most part but might be showing signs of stress due to a large number of old needles coming off the branches. This is normal but it seems like more are coming off this year. The three river gauges I follow are all running well below historical averages, ~50% or less.  View

It is wonderful to once again be able to see stars in the morning sky with no rain in forecast. The past few days has seen improvement in things drying out tho rivers in area still bank high. Continued weather forecast is for dry conditions which will help the farmers immensely to make decisions about starting up the combines in either their soybeans or corn with thoughts of possible mud holes to avoid. The hummingbirds have taken off for warmer climes as no longer seen at the feeder. Fall flowers blooming in abundance.  View

The year-to-date precipitation is quite close to normal, but the South Fork of the Crow River (where it crosses County Rd 2 between Glencoe and Silver Lake) continues to seem below normal, with some silt and "sandbars" showing.

I received 5.83 inches of rain this week (by calendar day, including a record breaking 5.70 inches on September 30 from the remnants of Hurricane Polo interacting with an intense upper level low pressure area. In a very intense rainfall event, 4.78 of the 5.70 inches of this rain fell from 9 pm to midnight (Over 4 inches fell between 9:45 pm and 11:30 pm.) The soil is saturated to 6 inches. I cannot walk on the lawn without sinking in. Widespread ponding occurred during and shortly after the rainfall. Widespread flooding occurred in the Omaha area with many roads and buildings under water. According to the National Weather Service, up to 8.27 inches of rain was recorded in southwest Omaha, in an area approximately 7 to 9 miles south-southwest of my location. The trees and grass are still mostly green, but the leaf color change is continuing. Conditions are severely wet. Temperatures were below normal this week with the cloud cover until Friday. The monthly precipitation total is 13.43 inches calculated by calendar day (midnight to midnight) which is 10.31 inches above normal (430 percent of the NOAA normal). Calculated from 7 AM to 7 AM, the monthly total for September was 7.73 inches (4.61 inches above normal), which is 248 percent of normal. Using 7 AM to 7 AM recording, the 5.70-inch rainfall was recorded October 1, so the monthly rainfall for CoCoRaHS is 5.76 inches (0.06 inch fell just after midnight early October 1). Precipitation here for the year is now 40.13 inches, which is 12.44 inches above normal (145 percent of normal). Precipitation for the water year is 5.76 inches, which is 5.44 inches above normal (1822 percent of normal). Plants and wildlife. Bird visits to the bird bath have decreased substantially. Approximately 8 species of birds (about 20 to 30 birds visit each day). Water Supply Water level in Standing Bear Lake (approximately 0.2 mile to the east of here) is about 5 to 6 feet above normal with many normally dry areas under water. Area creeks and ponds are also about 5 feet above normal with low-land flooding. Nearby corn and soybean fields (dryland farming) are wet. Crops have matured and are beginning to turn brown and yellow.  View

Rapid drying of soil after four days without precipitation. Soft spots only in depressions and ruts. Overall quick recovery to normal seasonal dryness. Area conditions may provide possibly brief window for safe controlled burns on public lands. Stunning 'crop' of mushrooms and fungi this Fall, after recent prolonged rains - a hazard for curious pets. Air quality not that great with unidentified allergens or irritants.  View

We had some rain yesterday however, any change to our drought was very short lived. Yesterday evening there was water flowing in the stream and the retiention pond was filled up to the spillway. This afternoon, however, there was little evidence remaining of yesterdays rain. There were a few puddles left in the bottom of the stream but most of it was bone dry. The water level in the pond had already dropped well below the spillway so nothing was flowing downsteam. We remain under Level 2 water restrictions so the lawns are looking worse than ever. Places that are irrigated are doing well. The leaf fall is continuing to increase with more falling at every breeze. We received 28.88 inches of rain in the past year compared to 46 inches annual average (62%)  View

No rain and poor forecasting efforts on top of that is the message for this report. Monroes rainfall is down 13+ inches in 2025 and tracking to be down 13+ inches for this year. Drought is 2 years old this week at this reporting station. Trees are stressed but still remarkably green, although leafs are falling quick now due to past storm breakage. Squirrels have too much food - creeks are low and water quality is poor.  View

Soil conditions are slightly damp still, with heavy dew's occurring most mornings and days with cooler temperatures. Trees are starting their fall color parade with sugar maples showing the most striking colors. Bushes are just now showing a tinge of color or yellowing. Grasses and vegetation are still growing strong. Birds that are migrating south to winter feeding grounds have started the journey. We have not seen any hummingbirds at any time of the day for the past 7 days. Small mammals have been active in search of ripening nuts such as acorns or walnuts. Larger mammals have been more visible lately.  View

0.29" of rain this week, 4.95" in the last 30 days. Corn and soybean harvest continues. More trees are starting to show color. Our apple trees are pushing out a few blossoms and new leaves (a "rogue bloom"), presumably from the stress of too much water. Lawn growth is slowing down. Creeks are still running a little above normal. Field drains are still trickling. Ponds are quite full. Mosquitoes may be slowing down just a little; looking forward to a killing frost.  View

After 2.95" of rainfall, we are finally climbing out of the drought. The pastures are beginning to green up (as shown in the photos. The ponds are still very low but they are improving. Even some of the cucumber seeds I planted a month ago are coming up. Even after watering them, they wouldn't come up until it rained. The cooler weather is such a relief. The rain is welcome. Even the cows seem to be relieved. We are still under a burn ban. I don't expect them to lift it just yet. The grass still looks burnt but it is greening up  View

What a start to October. The first 4 days have dropped 5.12 inches on my location. My soil is muddy. This morning (Sunday), I had standing water on my lawn. Messy. This hopefully ends our 9 week drought in a big way. There were trees that had some yellow leaves and that will continue as we progress into Autumn. My grasses were pretty much gone.

Yet again, in some ways it's mildly dry, but overall it seems normal. I've recorded 0.65" of rain since September 28. The ground seems typically moist for the season. Vegetation is dying back, but then it always does this time of year. Local rivers appear to be at normal levels. I have not been out on trails to assess muddiness, but I suspect areas that are typically moist are dry as they were a week ago..  View

Color increased through the week. Maple, oak, poplar, basswood, and ash trees all had some green leaves mixed with some leaves in shades of yellow, orange, red, crimson, and brown. A few maple trees had no leaves left on their branches. The woods had areas of no leaves on the ground, areas of leaves covering the ground, and areas of leaves so thick no grass showed. Many areas under oak trees were close to covered with acorns, lots of them. Some must have been eaten or squirreled away as there were some acorn caps mixed in. More grasses dried out, among them swamp grasses and cattails. Corn and soybean plants dried down too. Some corn was ready for chopping but farmers still left some fields standing that were too wet. A few farmers put high moisture corn into silos. Some soybeans were quite dry, a person had a difficult time making a fingernail mark in the seeds. Usually the soybeans should be combined when no mark can be left in the seed. The bean seeds didn't rattle in the pods yet either. This would be close to average for timing. Most apples were done, the latest varieties were still on the trees but the wind on Saturday knocked some off of the branches. The creek was murky pools with many areas covered with leaves. Few varmints were seen but they still had lots of acres of standing corn to hide in. A few deer were seen grazing near dusk and after dark. The few turkeys seen were two different sizes, likely a late brood. Cranes were heard while foraging in fields standing and cut. Geese flew overhead some mornings and evenings. Brown goldenrod flowers were starting to turn fuzzy. Wildfire danger was moderate to high depending on the day and time of day. Mornings with fog kept the danger lower but evenings after wind during the day were much higher with stubble and dried leaves and grasses available for burning.  View
