Warm days and cold nights continue. Dirt roads and trails are all powdery. Some conifer needles starting to wilt (dull grey-green color), pines dripping sugars that trash ones windows if you park under them. Streamflow nearing record low flows. Many small ponds dry or nearly so. Wildlife coming into communities in search of food. Wildfires continue often with extreme behavior. Forests have initiated fire and smoking restrictions - latest I have ever seen.
