| All three indices, Monthly, annual, and water year amounts are normal, or near normal for this station. Water has been regular and in useful, non-deluge, rainfall thus far for June. Warm humid weather with a good mix of sun has resulted in thick green centipede lawns and ryegrass has been growing well too. Very little need to irrigate or water landscaping. Some mosquito problems. Amphibians and reptiles plentiful. Larger wildlife (deer) have abundant green grass and browse. Temperatures have been hot, but not extreme. Zero fire danger. Only hazard is some trees are shedding larger rotten branches and damaged tops. Mowing grass every 7-10 days at 2.5 inches due to rapid growth. Local creek is normal water levels. Local intermittent/seasonal field ponds are full. |

| Lawn mowing companies are having difficulties cutting the lawns and are having many jams. Gas pipeline construction project and Kroger's parking lot project having significant delays on Marta Lynes Collins Boulevard. Due to the last several months being extremely wet Kroger's Gasoline Station will not start for at least 3 months and will not be done well into next year 2027. Lawn very soggy. Tree branches extremely saturated and a few branches cam down for certain tree species due to the wood inside the branch being supersaturated with water from the previous rains. The past 30 days has ben extremely wet. Pond level higher than normal.

| Mostly sunny and got with gusty winds, then mostly clear and warm overnight with gusty winds. The high temperature was around eighty nine degrees, and the low around seventy two degrees Fahrenheit. Songbirds are eating a feederful every day. White Clover, Prunella vulgaris, wild daisies, St. Johnswort, Marshmallow, Soapwort, aqualegia, and Valerian flowers are in full bloom. Blackberries and Red Raspberries are ripening. Early corn is 48" - 66" tall, late corn is 12 - -18"" tall. The third cutting of hay is occurring. Cicadas are emerging. The local intermittent stream is still flowing slightly but dried out downstream and the nearby trout stream is flowing at early summer levels. |

| Even though this week we received more than 2.5" of precipitation, the local ponds are well below their normal water levels. There is no standing water from the recent rains in my area. I am always keeping my birdbath replenished with fresh water. |

| Again, as with other recent reports, this is a hard one to assess. Rain has been sparce but adequate to keep the grass and lawns green and the flowers in prime condition. The prime indicator thought that it might be otherwise, besides my dry rain gauge, is that streams and creeks are very low. This is corroborated by the readout from a nearby USGS well indicating ground water is on the decline. However, grass and pastures show very little signs of stress. Horses have ample grazing and nearby fields are being actively cultivated, planted, harvested, as the case may be. |

| For the first time this summer, I’m having to regularly water my veggie garden. I’m actively refilling the bird bath, watching water levels and stone height for insects and bees. The heat has been dramatic. My russet potato plants are wilted, despite having been watered this morning. |
