The Condition Monitoring Star of the Week for this week was posted on March 8th by observer with station number SC-CR-88. We chose this report because the reporter used their expertise and interests to discuss weather and weather impacts in their area. This observer volunteers to assist with prescribed burns in their area, therefore they are familiar with fire fuels, how they behave and the significance of controlled burns in maintaining the health of ecosystems. This observer's expertise offers us an understanding of how weather impacts prescribed burning activities which serves as a great indicator of conditions in their area. So what are you interested in? What are your expertise? How can you harness your knowledge and skills to help us understand weather and weather impacts where you live?

Everything continues to be very wet and saturated. For example, my
completed compost is too soggy to remove from the bin.
I assisted with a prescribed burn over young Longleaf Pine and, despite
decent weather for drying the fuel (RH, temperature), the fuel never did
dry enough to carry the fire well.
