No rain in the last week. 3 days around 100 degrees with 15 to 20 mph winds. Irrigated lawns starting to brown. Normal rainfall for Lincoln since 4/1 is 9.49". My neighborhood has had 4.07", or 5.42" below Normal. Most of the southern half of Lancaster county has had 50% or less of Normal rainfall since April 1st. Birds are flocking to my birdbath and it has to be filled a couple of times a day. Some tree leaves are starting to cup from the heat and drought.
