We hope those of you in the West and also across the Southeast enjoy the cooler temperatures while they last, as more summer-like temperatures will be returning by the end of the week. pic.twitter.com/KZvB0iiAuD

Hot weather will be moving eastward toward the end of the week, bringing a toasty end of the week and weekend to the Ohio valley as we move deeper into meteorological summer and near the beginning of astronomical summer. Conditions have also become quite dry in the Cincinnati area.
Please remember to water…correctly!
Water once per week, one inch per week, under the entire branch spread, in the absence of rain, May through November. Either rainfall or your watering should equal the one inch per week. Put out a sprinkler and a straight sided soup can or rain gauge and measure one inch per week.
