gravitylover Posted Friday at 11:23 AM Share Posted Friday at 11:23 AM We'll be out of town so it's do or die time, if it doesn't rain the entire garden will die. The peppers might make it but everything else is too water intensive, celery, squash, tomatoes, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BxEngine Posted Friday at 11:41 AM Share Posted Friday at 11:41 AM Saw an incredible light show down at rehoboth, but by the time it reached the beach areas it had fizzled out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low of 71 here, that’s how you know it’s hot, I almost always manage to get into the 60s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishRob17 Posted Saturday at 01:58 PM Author Share Posted Saturday at 01:58 PM I was looking at the archived Drought Monitor maps for this time of year, which go back to 2000. The first week in August of 2016 looked very similar to the current map but my records indicate that I wasn’t running a deficient in rainfall like this year. Think I lucked out with a couple storms back then, much like some have this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted Saturday at 04:59 PM Share Posted Saturday at 04:59 PM The thing is this time it's dry a foot or more down. It's going to take a few wet weeks with a couple of multi-inch days mixed in to soak things down sufficiently. At this point I expect a terrible foliage season because the flora just can't produce the sugars needed for good color. My beans look like they're growing but they're half dessicated and tough skinned like leather. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishRob17 Posted Monday at 02:45 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 02:45 PM My longest streak of 90 or higher for the high temp is eight, set in 2013. Yesterday marked day six, will I tie that streak of eight tomorrow afternoon? Thankfully there is relief in sight this week regardless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
