Seems we are moderately dry, but on drought maps it shows us as mildly dry. Think that is more for some areas around us. Here, we watered vegetable garden all summer long. July rain=1.69", August rain=1.04", Sept rain=.85". The small animals and deer arrive every day to drink from two fairly large containers of water we keep in the back yard. Bird baths are drained every day and sometimes twice a day. CoCoRaHS Report from Station #Edmore 3.8 ESE on 10/12/2017
