Good-bye May, hello June. The month of May gave the area some weather to deal with. The area got hit with a late frost that hurt the fruit trees. Then there were eight days of rain, 4.31 inches, which was needed.
The burning law has been lifted. Now one can burn 24/7. Make sure to follow the safety guidelines.
