Biggest drought monitor of our lives?

There’s a large section east of the MS that is under drought conditions. There’s a large scale pattern that has to change…it hasn’t just been bad luck. But yeah, it’s only September.

It’s not doing a whole lot…yeah there’s a little surface condensation, but it barely gets into the ground. On dense fog nights where we saturate early, at best I get a 0.01” tip of the black rain gauge. Maybe it helps your seed on the surface germinate, but that’s about it. You had some decent rains recently too so you’re in a different boat than me. The 6” soil moisture here is back to the 90-100cb range after “moistening” up to 70-80cb a week ago. I’ll probably start hitting unchartered territory in the next week or two.

46.0° Should be an exciting drought monitor tomorrow.

MEX has 19F at SLK this weekend. lol

Lots of trees changing or just browning and defoliating. My pawpaws are mostly yellow and the river birch is half brown. At least the invasive buckthorn and oriental bittersweet are withering and dying.

Record low streamflow. Memorable.

00z lol Can’t even buy a fantasy light rain event

18z skunks me into October. Under an inch for Aug and Sep combined would be pretty funny. I’m not sure CON has even done that.

It’s like a desert here. I’ve never seen anything like it. Agree on the leaves…lots of early color that are mixed brown.

This is lol for a d16 ens run

Only 100F, but we can always go higher

lol at that GFS run Heat records completely shattered

Near 80° for most today.
