Our Condition Monitoring Star of the Week was posted on April 29th by observer with station number SC-BF-40 in Beaufort County, South Carolina. In their report, they discuss the impacts of abundant precipitation which many Carolinians have experienced over the last few weeks. This is important information because it helps us understand the effects of wet conditions in addition to dryness. Learning about many impacts weather helps us establish an understanding of normal conditions at specific locations. Once we know what "normal" looks like across various communities in the Carolinas, we can better distinguish between levels of wetness, dryness and related impacts. So we encourage all observers to discuss the impacts of dry and wet condition as well as how "normal" looks at your location. Great job SC-BF-40! Keep up the good work.
The heavy, compact rains and cool temperatures
are having an affect on our garden. Everything is late, and growth is
minimal. Lettuce, peas & basil are quite late. Tomato plants are
struggling. String beans seem to be the only veggie doing okay.
