Scale Bar: Mildly Wet
Description:
Rainfall over the past 7 days was actually below normal at 0.49 inch with very good drying rates. Soil moisture is still above normal after being severely wet just a week ago. Local plants, crops, or pastures are healthy, recovering from and draining from wet conditions. Areas of standing water have mostly dried up and most runoff from hillsides has stopped. Water logged areas of my yard were actually able to be mowed yesterday. Creeks and rivers are returning to normal levels. We finished May 12.26 inches ahead of the normal year to date rainfall. Annual rainfall of 31.27 inches compared to normal rainfall of 43 inches in an entire year!

Scale Bar: Mildly Wet
Description:
7 day rainfall 0.29. 13 week rainfall 21.40. Below normal rainfall over the past 7 days combined with hot temperatures and frequent breezes allowed for good drying this week and finally allowed seemingly perpetually flooded and boggy areas to dry out some. Runoff has eased, rivers have receded a bit, and some fields have become workable.
