Last night, we took a trip over to Blue Jay Point Park near Falls Lake for a meeting for Hallie’s preschool. As we drove by the lake, I was astonished at how low the lake is. Huge craggly swaths of bare shoreline are everywhere. One can now wade in places that would normally be over one’s head. I wish I had taken a picture of the disappearing lake.
With two days to go in the month, we need 3 and a half inches of rain to catch up to normal rainfall for the month. That would still put us in a deficit for the year.
This drought stuff is real, and it’s real scary.
