Submitted: 6/22/2025 8:24 AM
Scale Bar: Near Normal
Description:
For the week ending 6/22/2025, conditions were NEAR NORMAL. The 7-day cumulative precipitation total of 0.73 inches was 6% below the 13-year (2009-2022) average of 0.78 inches and in the “near normal” range; the 30-day total of 2.86 inches was 16% below the expected 13-year average of 3.42 inches and in the “near normal” range; and the 90-day total of 9.56 inches was 7% below the expected 13-year average of 10.25 inches and in the “mildly dry” range. There were two days of measurable precipitation, with a maximum of 0.68 inches on the 19th. Precipitation Trends—June-to-Date: 2.54 inches (down 0.44 inches, 85% of PRISM Normal); Year-to-Date: 16.40 inches (down 2.01 inches, 89% of PRISM Normal). Temps ranged from 91 F (on the 21st) to 62 F (on the 16th), with average Hi/Lo temps of 85/69 F (+9/+11 relative to the previous week). To the casual eye, all vegetation appears to be in good condition (especially the weeds!), but the sudden jump in temps this week bodes ill for the future without additional rain soon; note that accumulated precipitation currently lags 9.1% behind the average of the previous 2 years. Corn and soybean crops seem to be thriving.
