Same here. Soon as the sun lowers a bit, the sprinkler(and well pump) is gonna do some work.

The deeper soil moisture probes on the mesonet sites aren't inspiring much hope. Sykesville's 20" and 40" values are almost as bad as the eastern shore. Full sun, dry air, and maximum leaf out means thirsty vegetation and streams.

Yep. Did a bit better than you last week with the drizzle here, but my veggie garden is already thirsty as heck after two sunny days

Glorious last day of May. Lunch on the deck.

Looks to be a delicious, magnificent and healthy presentation Mrs J. I remember my late spouse taking basic ingredients and turning them into, by my eye/palate, a work of art.   Well done! As always …..

We will see this temp oscillation once  again this week and I think that continues thru end of June.  July will be hot but August and June not

Have seen a pattern pending with analogs so far of 1957,62,1990, 2003, 2011, 2015,16 and 2021

Getting hot for couple days this weekend and then quickly back into 70’s for highs. 
2003 and 2015 prominent analogs

And I don’t think I could have predicted this any better
