nw baltimore wx Posted yesterday at 01:41 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:41 AM Finally saw the first lightning bug of the season! I’m sitting on the patio with a whiskey(s) and a few flying around, so I expect they’ll be out in force with a little heat this weekend.

Retired life is good We've worked hard the past decade to let our lawn grow longer, end bad chemical usage, and increase native plants to boost our lightning bugs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted yesterday at 02:06 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:06 AM 4 hours ago, MillvilleWx said: US Drought Monitor is a contracted service with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with decades of AG experience. The composite for the area has actually shown improvement from week to week after the last period of rainfall leading to a downgrade in category from Extreme to Severe at a higher prevalence. The top soil layer is only part of the equation and it takes more than 5-7" of rain to combat a persistent deep layer soil moisture pitfall. It took a step in the right direction this go around compared to what has been occurring. I can tell you don't like government bodies by this response and I for one have issues with some government entities as well because I want to hold governments at all levels to a higher standard, however the work done from top to bottom in this industry is critical in maintaining a positive report with the AG industry which spans far and wide across the U.S. This group is consistently praised by the decision-makers at large and anecdotal evidence from a small part of a bigger picture does not represent the entire story. We can agree to disagree, but I thought the map made sense from all the data I have parsed, which I do on the daily while I'm on the job. The two inch soil values have crashed statewide. We really need another 1"-2" of rain in the next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
