| Most of the trees are having drought stress and are wilting. Approximately 20 percent of the leaves have already fallen. The unwatered lawns are extremely brown. Northern Kentucky University had to make emergency sidewalk repairs due to steps forming in the sidewalks due to the severe drought. Our local area is definitely in the D2 - SEVERE DROUGHT category. I had to water my trees again due to this serious drought. This drought is now becoming worse than the drought of 2010. Some home owners are having drought-related foundation problems. There is a potential lawn fire hazard due to tossed cigarette butts. Only about 35 to 40 percent of the normal rainfall during the last 90 days. Only 0.11" of rainfall this past week. Many pine trees are showing signs of browning and drought stress. There are very wide cracks in the lawns. |
