Nah that's not Palmer long term. It's extremely dry on the surface but reservoir and ground water levels aren't close to historical lows. No doubt we need rain but we will survive.
Quabbin 93% full. Wachusett 89%. 350 foot wells around here. Even in Eastern Mass groundwater levels aren't crazy low. But anyways Mass sure loves its Govt oversight on private people and land.
Oh and anything that falls immediately runs off. Same as Tblizz. Gonna need a 2 day soaker at minimum to saturate the lawn. Have to say the girls under the auto irrigation have budded nicely.
We are gonna have to wait until next Sunday for a synoptic wave as Scooter mentioned but there is still an outside shot at the Scooter knows rain storm this week.
