My high IMBY was 47.8°F today, and 44 the day before. My top soil is dry AF. We're still super dry up here in Reading.
FWIW, we got near to an inch of liquid precip (snow melt+rain) last Sunday, and my basement sump started cycling almost as soon as the snow started melting. I would have thought that if the ground was deeply frozen that all of that would have run off, but our extremely localized groundwater flow has seemingly been forever altered by our massive flooding rains in July 2023, so who knows what is actually happening down there.
As much as I'd love one last, good snow storm, I agree, we still need rain and lots of it. Although, maybe not another flooding event. I think there are still some roads closed from that previous event I mentioned (due to bridges still being washed out).
