The moderately dry conditions continue as this location received only two-tenths of rain the past week. Temperatures were near normal as water sources continue to lower slowly. Crops have turned yellow fairly quickly in the past week. Local farmers have not really begun harvest yet, although there are several soybeans fields harvested driving into town. The lawn is very dry and brittle with cracks beginning to appear. Watering of newly planted trees and some parts of the garden and flowers continues.
