Had a high of 95 at my place yesterday and I'm sure I will beat that on this Mothers Day. Falling behind on rainfall for May with only 0.84 of an inch so far. Average for May is 2.58 inches and last year for May I received 4.58 inches. Even April of last year with 5.92 inches was more than this April with 5.12 inches. The average for April is 3.11 inches. I did beat last years rainfall for March with 5.88 inches compared to 4.02 inches last year. Average for March is 4.24 inches. Another indicator of low rainfall this month is shorter grass as I'm in the process of cutting it as the heat and my old body permits.
With a strong El Nino forming in the Pacific this could be the Mother of all summers.
Note: Rainfall measurements are taken at my CoCoRaHS station OR-DG-22
Happy Mothers Day!
