1/29/2014 8:00 AM 0.32 0.5 M 0.5 M The very light snow that fell last night froze into the already wet ground causing the appearance of ice pellets, some of which may have also fallen. I went out at 4:30am, this morning, and saw no precipitation of any kind falling when I shined my LED headlamp into the sky, so while none was falling then, some must have fallen between 4:30am and 8am.

2/11/2014 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Off-topic, but amazing and natural: Yesterday evening at 5:15pm, while out pruning roses, I heard a racket I hadn't heard since living near the U of Florida's dairy pasture in Gainesville, FL: Sandhill Cranes, and a bunch of them. I recognized the sound even before I saw them, ran out into the open, and saw them almost a mile to the south of me. They were flying SSE to NNW, right up US Highway 441, abreast in a long line, and so slowly I had a good chance to do rough counts as they approached, then again as they slowly flew past. There were over 200 of them! Even living just one block from their breeding grounds in Florida, I have never before seen so many in one place. I'd like to think that citizen scientists, along with the heavy lift of real scientists, may have helped to keep at least a few of these amazing birds alive. :)

6/21/2014 8:00 AM 1.37 M M M M I had gone grocery shopping in the county seat, Douglas, 15 miles to the south, when this storm hit, but came home to half of a living tree down on the ground, a small dead pine down, sunflowers and tomatoes stalks broken off, and small limbs down everywhere from our slash pines, pecan trees, chestnut oak, and other trees on our 1.44 acres. A living northern catalpa tree in the northeast corner of our property, covered in a wild scuppernong grape vine and home to the nest of a pair of yellow-billed cuckoos, split and the 1' diameter fork on our side of the property line fell, taking out a no-longer-in-use telephone line when it went. A small dead pine, about 3" in diameter, also broke and fell, but it being dead isn't the whole story; our 700-pound female and 1000-pound male pet pigs (yes, pets) used the pine to scratch themselves, and while Spig, the 700-pound female may not have put a lot of pressure on the tree, Shadow, the 1000-pound neutered male did. So, the force it took to topple the 15' tree must have been pretty strong. Our neighbor's trash bin was down by our gate, about 100' from its usual location, ours was upside down, but in a more sheltered location. There was about 1.5' of accumulated rainfall in the ditch that runs along the west side of our property which abuts US Highway 441. Another neighbor has green 1" diameter slash pine limbs blown down all over her yard from the +/- 80'-tall trees on her northern property line. Other neighbors have similar limbs down. Judging by the direction the debris fell, the winds seem to have been generally out of the northwest, blowing along US Highway 441's path.

6/25/2014 8:00 AM 0.16 M M M M Still sorting my garden out after our weekend storm. My tomato plants snapped off the top 1.5' where they stuck out beyond the tomato cages; I've salvaged some and tied them up, others I had to lop off and hope they live. I've decided to leave the northern catalpa tree down rather than cut it up, for now, until the scuppernong grapes ripen, which should be in August. Then I'll sort the vine from the tree and try to train the vine into the fence so it will continue to grow. It produces an excellent, sweet thin-skinned green scuppernong, seeded, but with none of the usual scuppernong aftertaste. It's a great table grape. I also want to see if the yellow-billed cuckoo nest survived, or if they were just using the thick grape/catalpa foliage to roost, at this point.

6/27/2014 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M No rain, but the Drought Monitor shows no drought in our area. We had a localized dry spell, but thankfully that seems to have passed. The yard is green and not crunchy again, my garden - or what's left of it after our storm, last week - is slowly recovering, and trees in the neighborhood are looking alive. Even the neighborhood plant nursery has been able to turn off the sprinklers she had running 24/7. :)

7/11/2014 8:00 AM 2.32 M M M M I sat outside in the barn last evening during the rain, for a bit, and watched where the water pooled under the eaves where no drops were falling. The ground was so dry that it bubbled everywhere as the water soaked in. It almost seemed effervescent.

9/20/2014 8:00 AM 1.37 M M M M This storm came up in a hurry, yesterday evening. I had just rescued a possum from being beaten to death by the neighborhood boy heathens and put her in my barn in a cage until I can move her to the forest, today. The moment I stepped into the barn with her in the cage, the bottom fell out of the clouds and I had to wait it out with the poor, terrified possum girl, my 1000-pound pet pig Shadow, and Sparkie, my rescue mixed-breed dog. It lasted probably 20 minutes, but it rained so hard that I couldn't see the groundsel trees that run along the county-maintained dirt road on the south side of my property, about 50 meters from where I was in the barn. But, we need it. :)

9/26/2014 8:00 AM 0.02 M M M M Drought Monitor says we're in Moderate Drought. A specific area as small as our tiny community would probably be hard to pinpoint and donut hole out of larger area, but I've had to bleach our well twice in past couple weeks because of getting more than 1" of rain in one 24-hour period. But, I defer to their greater knowledge, and am glad to do so. It's still oddly Fall-like for so early in the season, down hyeah on the Coastal Plain. I'm still liking it. It is drizzling rain, right now as I file this, and was at 8am when I checked the gauge.
