Dry, Dry, and More Dry.
It is as hot and dry as I have ever seen it. The trails are actually dusty and the sensitive plants like touch-me-not are all wilted. Youngest tree plantings are fairing the worst. We haven't seen ANY rain in three weeks even though other parts of Long Island actually had some real local downpours. Coupled with a string of record breaking temperatures and you can imagine what life is going through out here. The rainclouds just missed NE queens and the dry continues. Forecast for rain later today and tomorrow holds out some hope but nothing so far. Can't help but think: is this just a natural cycle of wet and dry or is it a portent of things to come???
