| Conditions seem normal for this time of year. There is still plenty of moisture in the ground from the winter/spring rains and recent sunny weather has supercharged the growth of grasses and other plants. We're in the midst of doing the first rounds of mowing and weedwhacking around the property. New fronds can be seen unfurling on the various species of local ferns. Young leaves and racemes have appeared on the nearby maple trees. |

| April 7 - 16, 2025: Only 0.03" rain, measured on April 8th, otherwise dry with some breezy to windy days, overcast to sunny; dry. Hoses and sprinkler heads out of storage and well spigot connections checked--well switched on for yard and garden watering for the first time this year. Soil was hard packed and dry. Lawn mowers are out of storage for the first time to cut down spots with very tall grass. Tulips are up and flowering. Forsythia and crown imperial fritillaria are still in bloom. Trees are producing a lot of pollen and are 'green' (small leaves out). Neighbors tall ornamental grass plants are nearly dead from some winter weather conditions. Mackintosh apple tree in the back yard is blooming. Yellow delicious blooms are not out yet. Neighborhood quince and spiraea (bridal wreath) plants are blooming. Anna's hummingbirds still at the feeder, red-tailed hawk is circling the neighborhood each day--beautiful to watch! Little screech owls can be heard talking to each other each night. Water from the Boise River has been released to canals and the Boise valley irrigation system. Upper Boise River reservoirs are releasing a moderate amount of water to make space for later snowmelt. Snow is still on the ground along the Boise foothill ridgeline but is rapidly melting. |

Roads are excellent for travel. Still have the temps in the 30's in the mornings. There are still snowbanks where large areas were plowed. Windstorm after 2 days is finally gone. |

| Warm spring temperatures and sunshine this past week have resulted in a quick disappearance of the snow cover, with open areas clear of snow, and only small traces remaining in a few piles and shaded areas in the bush. There has been minimal runoff, and ditches are dry. Lake ice is solid, but small ponds are beginning to open up. There has been no significant precipitation over the last 12 days. As the ground thaws, significant rain is needed to make up for the winter deficit. |
