Dry and Getting Drier

It's been a long while since I posted. There hasn't been a lot to discuss really since the month began. We're started the month off May off very dry and that dry spell has continued. We've only had one significant rain this month and that was on the 15th and 16th when 0.65" of rain fell. Our total for the month so far is only 0.78". The normal amount of precipitation for the month of May is 4.75". The ground is becoming quite dry and I feel we may be in for one of the driest summers we've had in quite some time.
