Vegetation drying out and requiring more irrigation in San Diego County, California

CATEGORIES:

AFFECTED AREAS:
San Diego County, CA

Start Date: 2/19/2018 - End Date: 2/19/2018
Still no significant rain since early January. Has been unseasonably warm, which is drying out vegetation more than normal and requiring more irrigation. Have only turned off water to avocados once this year, whereas usually we have gone weeks without irrigation to them. There is some wildland fire hazard right now, when there usually is none this time of year. CoCoRaHS Report from Station #La Mesa 2.6E on 2/19/2018
