Wet Water Year So Far

Posted: 06 Jun 2019 05:35 AM

The water year is typically defined as starting on 1 October and going thru the next year until 31 September. The classification delineates the contribution of precipitation toward a given year's growing season. The featured map depicts the previous year with as large precipitation total for the 1 Oct thru 31 May period. Locations labelled with a blue R indicate this year's total being the largest on record. The record locations certainly have led to wet soil conditions making the spring plant very difficult if not impossible.
