Any of you zona guys getting updates on the water situation down there? Is anyone getting concerned? It has not rained here in several weeks. If / When it does rain the desert will be in full bloom. Pretty slow in getting some color in the desert. Being it's a desert.....it's always dry here. But we sit over a huge aquifer and we have huge lakes to the north that are fed by the Colorado River. Some knowledgeable guys I know say that we should never have a water problem here. I have not heard anything on wildfires and such......if that is what your asking? Those could become a concern in summer. www.zerohedge.com/weather/what-will-western-half-us-look-during-second-dust-bowl

I guess the risk of fires and drought are on the rise.

Rain, rain, rain...We needed it but I'm sick of it.
Looks like about another .25" so far today. Pretty much an all day soaker, nothing heavy but consistent light/moderate rain.

Dry with no real chance of rain in the 10-day. Things are starting to dry out that shouldn't be dry this time of year. Either shifting our rain to later in the spring, or not going to have reserves for when it shuts off in June/July/August/Sept. I hope it's just shifted to a month later.

Yeah you can have some of our rain. I want to take a soil test at the cabin but its almost to the point of to wet.

Yesterday, I noticed some species of ducks that I haven’t seen for awhile. Are the Dakota’s dry and the spring migration has shifted East?

I saw shovellers, buffleheads, probably ring bills( we used to call them blue bills). Also more mallards than usual and always a few woodies. I quit hunting ducks after the last year we could use lead shot.
