I'm hearing drought is easing in North Carolina- not here! Mild temps are encouraging early planting, and folks are wondering if we will have nougat moisture for germination of seasonal crops. Peaches are breaking bud in some locations. Birds and other wildlife frequent feeding and watering stations and gutters) as they prepare of the spring young. Tourist enjoy the springlike weather. Streams and creeks below "normal levels". When does this low water become the new "normal"? Lots of brush and roadside fires. Earliest pollen reports on record. My heating bill was 1/2 of what it was this time last year! CoCoRaHS Report from Station #Black Mountain 1.3 NNE on 2/11/2017
