The rain was really needed, but we could use more as the soil is still very dry at 6" and 18". Yesterday was the fourth day in a row that temps reached >90 F at this station (not one 90 F day last year) and the heat index was >95 F each day, reaching 100.1 F on the 7th. The Temperature, Humidity, Solar, and Wind index (THSW) reached 112 F due to the strong solar radiation on the 7th (I rely on the THSW index a lot when deciding how to dress for outdoor activities. The solar component can make winter temps seem a lot warmer or summer temps a lot more uncomfortable.) (Weather station is a Davis Vantage Pro 2 with solar and UV sensors, positive radiation shield ventilation, and soil moisture/temperature probes.)
