The grass dried up and a creek also went dry, leading a Romney farmer to check on his cattle’s water supply every couple of days to make sure that they still had water. There were also wells available for water. Scarce precipitation was diminishing second cuttings of hay, which may lead to a shortage of hay in the winter.
