Still a lot of them here, but mostly sub 40ft trees under the pine/oak/hemlock canopy. I've been noticing the first BLD in them this year. There's still a lot of sickly, spindly, tall elms down by the "stream" too.
The stream in our back woods is bone dry…not even a puddle or wet spot. I’ve never seen it like that. The ferns out there are brown. Most trees that are 10-20ft or smaller are wilting. The lawn crunches when walking on it. Hopefully we get a little tonight to moisten up the surface so it can all soak in Sat.
I think we'll do more than a quarter inch through the weekend. Probably widespread 0.50-1.00" with the chance for 1"+ in spots. NNE is probably favored, but any rain helps. Gotta start somewhere.
