Thanks for the heads up. We'll be getting it in NJ tonight.

Daniel, I put down my Fertilizer 1/2 rate and ringer spoon feeding also to push out some dollar spot, perfect timing as it's going to rain AGAIN today all day on and off and all week 70's and highest 80

If you get another 4 inches it could wash out the fertilizer, I think.

we aren't supposed to get much, there was already a nice soaking rain that got it all in the soil, that was what I wanted! Now sunny all week and perfect weather the highest is 80 all week, except for next weekend and not bad 86 ..

Supposed to start here around 4pm......

There were so many flash floods around here, my gauge said 4 1/2 in an hour, never saw it rain that hard in my life , what a mess!

Nobody says where they are in the rain. ????

Definitely NOT been a drought year for most anywhere in the USA, except maybe the Pacific Northwest, and parts of Florida (I think).

I am in NJ (Zone 7) and YES, soil moisture has been excessive since Winter (along with dew points that make it very unpleasant to be outside and do ANY kind of yard work. The weeds are on steroids, and at this point it's like weeding in a jungle..., why bother?! Currently, under a flood watch here for the afternoon and evening. Funny you mentioned about fertilizing, I feel the same way..., why bother if the rains are coming to wash them away. Should have a few nice days in the mid 80's then humidity builds right back in with temps around 90. Basil is a tropical so should bounce back, but LOTS of Mediterranean herbs (lavender, rosemary, etc..) HATE HATE this weather..., too HUMID, too WET, too LONG.

Hi I am in Pittsburgh, PA and I chose to fertilize today because I knew we'd get about another inch of rain and my lawn is super thick, so pretty sure they won't be run off, but it's done now... I am happy it got watered in rather than be nervous it not getting watered in in the mid summer even though temps will be amazing all week 77 tomorrow and wed and 80 all week and full sun...I think I chose the perfect time frame ( fingers crossed ) ;x

1.6" currently on the gauge, but it hasn't caught up yet (the rain bucket from the last hour hasn't gone into the day bucket yet). It was torrential while I was driving home.

We're already at half again July's rainfall and haven't counted today's yet.

And today ain't over and there's another round coming in.

Same here with the sunny constant days! my lawn is showing signs of dollar spot more and more but I know it doesn't do damage and abates when Fall comes, but I threw the book at this crap and I can't help mother nature with the rain so...it is what it is at this point! ;) Hope everyone is enjoying the last few weeks of summer, August is usually cooler towards the middle , Fall can't come soon enough to be honest

Fall (September/October): beautiful days, nice cool nights, NFL football, still grilling, firepit, full days of school, weeds dying, lawn coming back to life, reseeding, .....my favorite time of year.

November: leaf clean up= sucks.

I like now. I'm kind of a lizard. I curl up and soak in heat.

Seriously, I wore a long-sleeved blue shirt today with black pants. My office is air-conditioned, but if I put on the ol' hard hat and head down to the shop floor, it's 95 to 105 degrees.

I'm fine for extended periods.

But in January, I'm kind of in torpor for the entire month. Which seriously interferes with my plans to take over the world.

I am def a winter girl, I am originally from New England ;) yes Love my Patriot's NO hating ;) and my lawn is not doing well...I am OVER IT! till Fall Lol not worth it, mother nature is Bi polar and she isn't very nice ha ha hahaha

I was in the lawn this morning the heat and humidity today is unbearable.....weeds everywhere, flies, mosquitos, ughhh....

Yeah this time of the year is ugly, fungus, heat stress, bugs, not cute!!!!! Bring on FALL <3 like you said Football, Bonfires, pumpkin patches, my fav time of the year!
