Drought for the west

[TOGIE]

I think SE Wyoming may luck out again this year, cooler spring and just enough rain at the right time has things looking pretty fair.

driving through laramie and saratoga over the weekend. it was nice seeing how green the sage prairies were.

Percentages get a little goofy at the end of the year but you get the idea.

I am going to start building my ark SAP. 522 % of normal.

The past few day have given us nearly 2 inches of rain. It is going to make the summer unless it just turns very hot and windy
Maybe this year all the people with 799 tags will not have to search through a half a dozen bull to find one that is not broken in half.

7-day precip forecast continues the La Niña story.

67 days since last moisture here.
Tease cloud season, 20% this weekend, maybe.
The early EP hurricane leans toward some ,again.

Extremely wet spring around here.

Wichita has had the 5th wettest spring on record.

70 miles west of us, they had there first rainfall/snow since September last week, but nothing more than enough to cut some of the dust. Western Kansas is suffering, but long term weather forecasts seem to be more hopeful.

Close to another 2" of rain on the coast this weekend.
Hoping some of it gets to you all that need it.

Everybody here looks like a good irrigator right now.

Raining here right now (Buffalo WY) What a difference from the past two years. We still have catching up to do, so any rain is welcome.

Lake Mead seems to be filling up a bit lately,so good news as far as that goes.

April was really good to us here southeast Idaho. The outlook is 10 fold better than it was at the beginning of March.

Ugh it was wicked hot here yesterday, saw like 107 and today isn't any better. No breeze and when there is one its hot.

With tomorrow's forecasted winds it'll be like standing in front of a blow dryer.
