charset="UTF-8" Folks, The long drought in central NC continues to get worse by the day and week, and if we get a whopping 0.1-0.2" of rain in a day, that is cause for celebration! But, that is the story since July, with that amount a week -- which is happening inside the Raleigh Beltline and sites just outside -- totalling barely 1" of rain a month, or if drawn out for the year, a total of 12" of rain in a YEAR! But, that is where Raleigh stands -- 13" in July and essentially 1" each of the other 8 months, for a total of around 21-22"for the year. And, October is essentially the driest month of the year here. Thus, there was hardly anything in bloom today at the margin of the State Fair parking lot and at the Art Museum grounds. The extensive patches of Frost Aster at the Art Museum have maybe 2 weeks before blooming, if they are geen enough by then. The verbena WILL bloom again after a rain event, but the stands look bad right now. Here is what I saw at these two sites, with SF - being the State Fair parking area and AM being the art museum grounds, where mentioned; 9:15 -- 10:50: Sleepy Orange 6 Checkered White 1 SF E.
