Condition Monitoring Star of the Week, April 13th - 19th - Beaufort County, SC

Our Condition Monitoring Star of the Week was submitted on April 20th by observer with station number SC-BF-10 in Beaufort County, South Carolina.  We chose this report because observer lets us know that recent precipitation has alleviated dryness at their location.  In addition to understanding how drought/dryness onsets, we also need to know how it lessens. We read your reports using specialized software to select and categorize sentences and phrases according to what other observers discuss. These categories include "recovery from drought or dryness".  We know that many areas in the Carolinas has received little rainfall over the past month or so and that recent precipitation has offered relief.  We urge all observers to let us know how dryness has been alleviated in their area.  Great job SC-BF-10!

Finally got some April relief! Received 2.32" this past week, ending yesterday with a terrific thunderstorm and tornado watch. Back to near normal needing approximately 1/3" to close the month out as average.
