Growers in the Roza Irrigation District in the Yakima River Basin were anticipating 46% to 54% of normal water supplies this year as the year’s snowpack was well below normal. The district drained its irrigation canal for 10 days in late May, effectively leaving them dry for that length of time to reserve water for the hot, dry summer months. One farmer had to choose which crops to leave without water and opted to pull out some wine grapes and to stop watering other grapes. He is losing about 15% to 20% in production acreage and will likely see an increase of roughly 15% in labor costs. He acknowledged that the situation was stressful. The district's emergency fund of $4.1 million for drought years has already been exhausted, so they tapped next year’s operating budget, but still need more money. The Roza district is looking to Washington’s Department of Ecology for assistance. The Seattle Times (Wash.), June 3, 2024

SPC Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1017 AM CDT Mon Jun 03 2024 Valid 031700Z - 041200Z The previous forecast remains on track with only minor adjustments needed based on latest surface observations and trends in high-res guidance. Confidence remains reasonably high in the emergence of elevated fire weather conditions this afternoon across portions of AZ into southern NM and far west TX between the 20-01 UTC period. South-central NM into the Trans Pecos region of far west TX should see the longest duration of 15+ mph winds with 5-15% RH where deeper boundary-layer mixing should favor frequent gusts between 20-25 mph. See the previous discussion below for additional details. ..Moore.. 06/03/2024 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0156 AM CDT Mon Jun 03 2024/ ...Synopsis... Broad and weak zonal flow will continue over parts of the Southwest and southern US as a subtle shortwave moves eastward into the Plains. Gusty winds are possible over parts of NM and west TX where receptive fuels and hot/dry temperatures are also expected. ...New Mexico and far West TX... Despite being weaker than the past several days, westerly mid-level flow should remain strong enough to bolster surface winds to around 10-15 MPH over parts of central/eastern NM and far West TX this afternoon behind a dryline. With RH values in the low teens and temperatures of 90+ F, the dry and breezy air mass will likely support a few hours of elevated fire-weather potential within receptive fuels. The most likely corridor for more sustained and stronger winds will be closer to the dryline/surface trough across far west TX. A few hours of locally elevated fire-weather conditions may also extend farther west in to central AZ. While winds are expected to be more sporadic, dry surface conditions along the Mogollon Rim have allowed for continued drying of fuels. As such, at least a few hours of 15-20 mph wind gusts and RH below 15% may support some elevated fire-weather risk. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more
