Year to date precipitation – Doesn’t look too bad… 60% to 80% of average..
As of June 17 – 64 days without 0.1 inch of rain in southern Utah. About a month everywhere else… 0.1 inch is bo-diddly-squat! Means nothing.
0.5 inches of rain can actually do some small things.. Alfalfa needs about 1/3 to ½ and inch per day for maximum growth. This pattern takes in all but northern Utah… over 2 months without rain that can do something…
2 inch soil moisture All of Utah is phenomenally dry…
The green dots – reservoir releases… Orange and red dots – less than 25% of average flow or 10%... Natural streamflow…
Back to REALITY… burnt toast aint this dry The international symbol of marriage
Summary Its so dry, trees are bribing dogs to come a little closer….
