v 2.4.3.0

We have had just 0.31 inches of precipitation over the past three weeks. The effect of this is most visible in the creeks and small streams which are all dried up with no water flow at all. Area lakes and ponds are all below normal levels with the most significant impacts clearly visible at the shoreline of the larger lakes. It is fall and there is not much evidence of the lack of rain on the vegetation as most of the deciduous trees either have dropped or are in the process of dropping their leaves. The flower beds are all in their winter state. We do have plenty of birds frequenting our bird feeders. Wood ducks are regular visitors on the pond and the great blue heron is a frequent visitor. We have the white tailed deer and a raccoon making regular forays into our yard. CoCoRaHS Report from Station #Holly Springs 1.1 ESE on 12/8/2017
