In Cincinnati, we will be on a weather roller coaster with cool rain Wednesday afternoon, a rain-snow mix Thursday morning, and much warmer rain Thursday night into New Year Day, then turning cooler again. Minor snow accumulations cannot be ruled out Thursday morning, mainly on grassy surfaces. Overall rainfall amounts by week’s end could approach 2 inches. Flooding concerns should be fairly minimal since only 1 inch of rain has fallen in December which is well below normal.

What is the Condition Monitoring Report? See these links for more information:
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.
To the extent possible recycle falling leaves back into the soil around the trees and maintain mulch around the trees to a radius of at least 3-5 feet. Keep mulch off trunks. Use a coarse textured mulch. Avoid triple shredded mulch.
