High/low: 60°/37°. Currently 37°, mostly clear, calm, dewy. September 2019 was cooler, more humid, and wetter than normal. Cumulative September 2019 rainfall: 2.70" (1.35" is my 23-yr ave; 1.26" is 30-yr Ave by PRISM for this location). The trees appreciated the extra moisture. One T-storm this month near this location (but not overhead). Total cum. ETo for Sept. 2019: 1.29". Total rainfall from Oct. 1, 2018 - Sept. 30, 2019: 24.29" (25.13" is my 22-23-yr ave). Summer 2019 had seasonal temps, (somewhat cooler overall) but no extreme heat; only 7 days reached into the 80s. Aug & Sept were noticeably more humid than normal (unusual here). Summer droughts were typical but not extreme; some bouts of decent rains in late June, first part of July, and mid/late Sept helped. Wildfire risk never got higher than 'moderate'. No smoky skies or problematic air quality this summer. |

Gauge and its wooden post were (and still are) covered with dozens to hundreds of 0.5-1.0", semi-translucent, very thin (~0.3mm diameter) "immature" (?) earthworms. The worms move fairly fast. They were on the gauge/post yesterday evening when only 0.75" of rain had fallen, and they linger this morning. Interesting. |

Overall, October 2019 was cooler and wetter than normal, but also had many truly glorious sunny days and great sunsets. Our limited fall colors have lingered due to less wind storms than typical. First frost was Oct. 10th; and first hard frost/freeze (28°) was Oct. 30th. |

High/low: 39°/25°. Currently 34°, overcast, calm, no frost on car, but frost did not melt from half the yard, so still frosty, ground surface frozen, and birdbath is still frozen solid. November 2019 was notably drier than normal, with many sun-filled days, great sunsets, and only a couple of wind storms (none severe). Total Nov. rainfall: 1.98" (my 23-year average for November is 3.76", JG's 41-yr ave. is 4.10", and 30-yr ave by PRISM is 3.93"). Over the last decade, 4 out of 10 years were notably drier than normal; interesting trend?! November is typically our wettest month. Gauge-measured ETo for November 2019: 0.22". While a few seasonal streams have begun flowing, most streams on Lopez are still not flowing consistently due to our drier November. Wetland are also slow to hydrate and fill. |

Happy New Year! 46°, partly cloudy, light to moderate winds. Yesterday included rain and gusty winds. Rain ended by approx. 7:15pm on 12/31/19. My monthly summary below includes the 0.43" of rain that fell on 12/31/19 into my December stats. December 2019 was generally milder than usual, and was drier than normal (until we caught up on rainfall the last two days of the month). December rainfall: 3.71" (my 23-yr ave is 3.41"; 30-yr Ave by PRISM is 3.02"). No snow recorded in Dec. Yearly rainfall for 2019: 23.28" (25.08" my 23-yr ave; 23.71" ave by PRISM). Rainfall Oct. 1 - Dec. 31, 2019: 9.03" (about 1 inch below average). December was mild enough that certain spring bulbs have begun to sprout and break the ground surface and filberts/hazelnuts flowering catkins have elongated. |

Checked gauge exactly at midnight to get a total for January stats, but kept collecting for morning reading. 0.84" fell before midnight and 0.67" fell between 12:01 and 6AM. January 2020 was a much wetter than average January, with a total of 6.84" of rain thru midnight of 1/31/20. Wettest January in my 23-yr records; average rainfall would be 3.6". Temps were mainly mild (40s and low 50s), but did have one week of colder temps, including a low of 18° on 1/14/20. Total snowfall for Jan. 2020: 10.9".

The snow was occasionally mixed with rain, but otherwise fell at moderate to heavy rates, but mainly melted upon touching the ground, except for one episode of accumulation in the late afternoon (0.2"). The steady snow amounted to 0.46" of melted water in gauge by late afternoon. Another 0.61" of 'rain-only' fell from roughly 4:30 pm to 5:15 AM.

40°, cloudy, calm, with very light, mist falling (barely perceptible). The 0.01" fell on March 31, 2020 and was added to March rainfall stats. Overall March 2020 was cooler than normal, but many days reached near-average highs, but no true warm snaps (no temps in 60s). Nine mornings with light to moderate to heavy frost (definitely not typical), and 3 days with no frost but sub-freezing temps and hard freezes. Total March 2020 rainfall drier than average: 1.49" (2.29" is my 23-yr ave. for March; 1.96" is 30-yr ave by PRISM for this location). Total cum. gauge-measured ETo for March: 0.59". Tree canopy and understory leaf-out is running about 10-15 days behind typical due to colder March temps. Winter 2019-20 Summary: mostly a mild winter, with intermittent cold snaps and annoying, incessant NE winds. Total snowfall: 11.1", with 6 days of measurable snow lingering on ground. Most snow fell in mid January 2020, with a light dusting in early February. Winter started off on a drier note, but ended up being wetter than average due to very wet Jan. & early Feb. Signs of early spring were visible even by Jan. 1st, but cold snaps kept us oscillating in and out of "winter". |

51°, overcast, calm, with light rain/drizzle currently falling. June 2020 was seasonal, and included cooler episodes (locally referred to as "Junuary" or "June Gloom"), which is actually pretty typical for June, although in the last decade these cooler blips have been rarer. June 2020 had slightly above average precipitation: cumulative rainfall: 1.40" (1.06" is my 23-yr average; 1.23" is 30-yr ave by PRISM for this location). Total cumulative gauge-measured ET: 1.68". Nine days had highs reaching into the 70s (pleasant), while eight days had highs not exceeding the 50s (coolish). Fourteen nights with lows in the 40s, otherwise lows in the 50s. Southern half of Lopez Island received more rain than my northern gauge. Lawn is still about 70-75% green, but brown, dormant spots are quickly settling in for the summer season. Wildfire risk is still low for the time being. |

High/low: 71°/50°. A few light raindrops yesterday between 7:45-8:15 AM. Currently 56°, partly cloudy, calm, with light patchy dew. July 2020 started off on a cooler than average note with daytime highs only in the 50s July 1-3. Lawn stayed green longer than typical. By July 13th normal summer temps and mostly sunny conditions had settled in. Total rainfall for July 2020: 0.73" (0.51" is my 23-yr average; 0.66" is 30-yr Ave by PRISM for this location). Total cumulative ET for July 2020: 2.30". The the light rain earlier in the month and cooler temps initially maintained soil and vegetation moisture levels. Wildfire threat levels were just adjusted to 'Moderate' the last week of July. Lawn is about 60% brown/dormant but 40% still green. Our first 80°+ day was reached July 20th. Highest temp (84°) reached on July 27th and 30th. Four days had highs in 80s; 14 days highs in 70s; 9 days highs in 60s; and 4 days highs in 50s. Lows were in upper 40s to mid 50s. |

High/low: 65°/54°. Currently 56°, partly cloudy, calm, humid, but no dew. For August 2020, temps were somewhat cooler than average (but mainly pleasant), and rainfall a little drier than average. Total cumulative rainfall: 0.63" (my 23-yr August ave. is 0.81", 30-yr ave. by PRISM for this location is 0.89", and JG's 42-yr ave. is 0.82"). Cumulative ET for August 2020: 2.24". Temps ranged from a high of 86° (Aug. 16th) to a low of 43.5° on Aug. 13th. Only two days reached into the 80s, twenty days with highs in the 70s, and nine days with highs in 60s; nineteen days with lows in the 50s, and a twelve days with lows into 40s. While drier, we had dew (usually light and patchy) most mornings in both July and August, which is a bit unusual, for typically we get stretches of days or weeks with zero dew. Wildfire risk remains "Moderate". Signs of drought are patchy and not as severe as in past years, but when digging in soils, they are still very dry. |
