For the week ending 7/6/2025, conditions were SEVERELY DRY. The 7-day cumulative precipitation total of 0.00 inches was 100% below the 13-year (2009-2022) average of 0.78 inches and in the “severely dry” range; the 30-day total of 2.45 inches was 28% below the expected 13-year average of 3.42 inches and in the “mildly dry” range; and the 90-day total of 6.90 inches was 33% below the expected 13-year average of 10.25 inches and in the “severely dry” range. There were zero days of measurable precipitation. Today was the 9th consecutive day without measurable precipitation, the first dry period this year of 7 or more consecutive days. In that period, 30-day running precipitation totals have gone from 3.73 to 2.45 inches, a net decline of 1.28 inches and a relative loss of 34.3%. Precipitation Trends—July-to-Date: 0.00 inches (down 0.73 inches, 0% of PRISM Normal); Year-to-Date: 17.59 inches (down 2.64 inches, 87% of PRISM Normal). Temps ranged from 90 F (on the 5th) to 64 F (on the 2nd), with average Hi/Lo temps of 86/70 F (-3/-2 relative to the previous week). The lawn has become noticeably parched. I’ve begun watering our two most valued shrubs/trees daily. The warm dry spell has been good for agricultural row crops.
