We were supposed to get some rain last night from the front, but it appears it stalled out in West Texas. Guessing the hurricane out in gulf is mixing things up, cause the weather guys have been throwing darts on where this storm is going to end up.
There are a lot of areas in the U.S. that is not getting the average yearly rainfall that's for sure. I'm in an area that's much drier climate than Northern VA. The evaporation rate here can be 2.5 times the amount of rainfall rate. The last 4 years its been 9 inches of rain less per year/average. The ecological impact is very significant here.
In 2022, Jan 1st to Aug. 22 we only got 6.35in of rain here, it was almost a desert here. There was no grass, just a few stem type weeds.
