Drought

It's been a week since we had any measurable precipitation, and we only got a half an inch. Before that the last rain was April 28th. "Dry" doesn't do this justice.

On top of that are the unusually high temps. It started getting very warm in march this year, reaching into the 80's and 90's regularly. It hasn't really let up at all: tomorrows forecast high is 105°F.

It was pretty dry here in 2010, but nothing like this. The records we're breaking were all pretty much set in 1988.

We can only hope that rain is on the horizon ...
